I also happen to have some 29&8 from the same exact year on Betamax, but I have no capture equipment for Beta and the audio is nonexistent.

Well of course. 9&10 is a different network affiliate than WDIVWC8KCY wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 2:18 pmNice catch!
The 29&8 logo that briefly appears in the lower right corner at 18:46 was their in-program ID. They would black out the video behind it and display it whenever the WJRT-12 in-program ID aired. Often, there was a bit of a lag...just as there was when 7&4 took its network feed from WNEM, and when 9&10 aired the Tigers games originating from WDIV.
You missed the point of my post: in-program IDs that weren't always done smoothly, or at all.organman95 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 14, 2020 7:14 amWell of course. 9&10 is a different network affiliate than WDIVWC8KCY wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 2:18 pmNice catch!

I had also seen WTMJ, WOTV and WNEM via WPBN (this was in the late seventies and early eighties, when one could rent a cabin for a week or two, instead of having to buy it).WC8KCY wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 2:18 pmNice catch!

I wasn't aware they ever took an off-air network pickup from WTMJ. Back in the early days of TV, that would have been the easiest solution for an NBC feed until WMBV signed on from Marinette, WI.innate-in-you wrote: ↑Tue Apr 14, 2020 1:35 pmI had also seen WTMJ, WOTV and WNEM via WPBN (this was in the late seventies and early eighties, when one could rent a cabin for a week or two, instead of having to buy it).
How is that possible? Wouldn't it his another station or two long before WPBN?innate-in-you wrote: ↑Tue Apr 14, 2020 1:35 pmI had also seen WTMJ, WOTV and WNEM via WPBN (this was in the late seventies and early eighties, when one could rent a cabin for a week or two, instead of having to buy it).WC8KCY wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 2:18 pmNice catch!

On one occasion, The over-the-air signal of one station was suddenly overridden by a PBS with the (pre-closed-captioning) ABC Evening news for the deaf.
WUFT in Gainesville, FL may have been in the right direction and the right distance to hit WPBN's antenna.
On 6 meters, Es distances are usually less than 1000 miles, though with the high-gain antennas of full-service television and the higher frequency, 1000 miles is average.
It very well have given some CCI to a few stations on channel 5.organman95 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 15, 2020 7:00 amHow is that possible?

I distinctly recall seeing WKBD slides many times on WPBN while viewing Felix The Cat in the mid '70s...innate-in-you wrote: ↑Tue Apr 14, 2020 1:35 pmI had also seen WTMJ, WOTV and WNEM via WPBN (this was in the late seventies and early eighties, when one could rent a cabin for a week or two, instead of having to buy it).
