@mbrstooge I am thinking that had to do with the name of the transmitter but I don't know, if someone could please answer this it would be appreciated.
@mbrstooge WCY-25 refers to a studio transmitter link which sends a television station's audio and video from the broadcast studio to transmitter in another location.But according to its listing on FCC Info the call sign has changed to WPQQ 793.
Texas Network - Texas Network (1990-2000) (Cool Variant In 199?),13 & Television Worth Watching (199?),Color Bars (Past-Present),WCY-25 Dallas, Texas, United States Of America (199?),Color Bars (Past-Present)
This little tidbit used to scare the shit out of me as a kid, i still can't figure out why to this day, but this is the exact footage now that i watch it
Just outta curiosity, what's the "WCY-25" ident? I remember seeing it during the off-air hours on KERA 13 in the 90s.

Who is the person doing the voice-over? I've heard him over the years and always wanted to know he was.

@WestWash97 It was likely production stock music used by the station.

A very interesting reminder of what was once...I remember catching this once, right along with the ID for WCY-25.

When it's late at night, anything is unpredictable. What wouldn't scare you in the daytime can have an opposite effect at night.

My FOX station (WTVT) has had a "13" like that since 1989. I'm glad WTVT kept it through all of its logo changes since then.
