It's true, kargaroc. It would mostly air during WPWR's time slot hours during the White Sox season. It moved off channel 60 around '84 and went to cable.

I believe this channel carried sportsvision. however, i do not know.

WSNS affiliated themselves with S I N (Spanish International Network) when they switched format in mid-1985. I thought that S I N was affiliated with Univision at that time before the network finally became Univision for good in 1987. So was WCIU / WSNS both running Univision-type programming at that time? Also, from your memory - 'cause mine's a little sketchy - what network did WBBS run off of during their air time - Telemundo perhaps? Or were they just an independent?

Exactly. If I remember right, WBBS mainly ran movies and maybe the odd variety programming. They were supposed to compete with WCIU, which was just beginning to fall into the Univision cartel, and WSNS, who had just changed over to all Spanish.

I'm still looking for the WPWR--->WBBS TV signoff from the same era. I remember seeing it every night at 7:00 pm in the summer of '83. Thanks! ;)

Hey, this is also where they aired ON TV's sports division, "SportsVision", after WBBS would sign on. It would be a scrambled transmission like ON TV would be. SportsVision would later move to cable and become SportsChannel then later Fox Sports Net.

Great piece of history, drripco! I can tell you what this is: this is a clip you found of the transition of split-station WBBS-TV, which ran Spanish TV from 7pm to 2:30am, while WPWR-TV would show English programs (old movies and cartoons) from 2:30am to 7pm. This clip looks to be from about 1984-85. 60 is now WXFT-TV Telefutura 60, owned by the Spanish network Univision.
