Hmmm, I don't remember this.
-
yeah i almost forgot, a Wikipedia entry showed that only WOR-TV and KHJ-TV are using different versions of the national anthem.
-
The US Army Band version of the Anthem was also used by the 1984 and 1996 Olympics whenever our athletes won gold. It's the best version ever played.
-
P.S. I was also thinking of KHJ-TV's 1982 use of Ray Charles' "America the Beautiful" on their sign-offs.
-
Not by WOR-TV - at least not in the 1970's when the Mormons "SSB" was run, possibly also the Aim High "SSB" in the 1980's. Unless they ran the Army "SSB" in the 1960's.
-
FYI: This SSB version was also used in all of RKO General's TV stations.
-
Did WNEV sign off just on Friday & Saturday Nights while Nightwatch was running during the rest of the week?
-
This particular rendition of the "SSB" by the U.S. Army Band is perhaps my favorite of all of 'em. I've seen about four different edits with this version - this one; a variant seen on WPIX in New York; another that was used on a couple of North Dakota TV stations; and yet another that was used by some other stations including KBIM in Albuquerque, NM.

I love our national anthem.

I see WNEV used the same Army "SSB" film as used on its final day as WNAC-TV in the early morning hours of May 22, 1982. Now, as Mr. Jensen is heard on this sign-off, and Ch. 7's owner at this point was already being referred to as "WNEV-TV, Inc.", is it possible he did the (prerecorded) sign-offs while the newer announcer did the sign-ons?

Yes.
It seems the 'new' guy with the vanilla-voice did the day-time announcements. However, they still used the classic sound of Jensen for the late-night announcements, at that time.

I have to agree with your assessment of Mr. Jensen's voice being "classic" - on a list along with WOR-TV's Phil Tonken and Ted Mallie, WNEW-TV's Tom Gregory, WPIX's Bill Biery and Ralph Lowenstein, WJW/WJKW's Howard Hoffmann, WFLD's Ron Beattie and Jim Barton, KNBC's Victor Bozeman, KABC's Len Beardsley, KHJ's Ted Meyers, et al.

And former WSBK TV-38's Dana Hersey as well.
