this isnt fake apparently if u copy paste this to ten people in the next ten minutes u will have the best day of ur life tommorrow u will either get a kiss or asked out if you break this chain u will see a little dead girl in ur room TONIGHT in 53 mins sum one will say ilove u or im sorry or i wanna go out with you
I wasn't sure of the exact date but I knew it was back in 1962. I remember my nan saying she got a TV for the 1956 Olympics so does that mean we only had teh ABC in Newcatsle from '56-'61?
NBN3 was the first TV station in Newcastle (and regional NSW for that matter). Before then Newcastle residents would have just had to get lucky and try to pick up TV stations from Sydney. ABC didn't start rolling out regional TV services until 1963 onwards.
Thnaks man. Also last night in I don't know how long, NBN needed to display a technical difficulties slide. It was amodern one where it had the current NBN logo in the middle and it had a picture of sunflowers. But no sound.
This logo is from many many years ago ... And Nobbies lighthouse in the background ... Only Novocastrians would know this view ...
Pity some other pricks bought the station ...
Best logo ever, just make it rotate ...

I'm pretty sure GTV 9 in Melbourne used this song for this purpose quite a few times as well. Voiceover of course came from Pete Smith.

Well who else would be doing their voice overs? :)

You know, NBN-3 turned 46 on March 4 (they originally signed onto the air March 4, 1962).

New Zealand used this Elton John piece for test card music.

Not surprising. They use to use different instrumental pieces but that was one I remembered
