KPHO analog signoff captured on a 1948 set.

Channel 5 quit using the antenna long before 2009. Channel 5 used to be located at a building just north of the building. It's called studio 1 now.

I love this style of early TV, hopefully I'll get one some day. Great video.

Wow, just wow!

[DOSphantom]

Extremely surreal, almost thought I was watching some pulp sci-fi movie.

Going to repair your TV with a few new pieces, or keep it pure vintage?

WOW! a 1948 tv set is very very extremely rare to find these days good thing you had one of those 1948 tv sets

It was a bit disappointing to me because when I first turned it on the sound was clear and the picture was completely stable, but the set kept degrading with time. If I could do it again, I'd turn it on at 11:55. It was also less dramatic than I had hoped because the broadcast signal didn't actually drop away to snow. Oh well. :-)

Very nice, deneui! I think the picture held up just fine.
