@micmac99 CBS Radio still plays that sounds - WBBM-AM chimes the hour every hour.
-
I wonder is this the bumper they played before the The Star Wars Holiday Special?

@swatch71 If it was at 8pm it was undoubtedly some stupid kid show...which is an adult show now.

I hear that bing and then I expect that do do do do do CBS Radio news

@MarkJ1961 I remember the "bong" too, Mark, but its been a long time since I've heard it. I always wondered its significance and finally concluded that it chimed the top of the hour. Am I wrong?
-
I could be in my room. I'd then hear the chimes then the horn blast from 50 feet away, and I'd come a-runnin', knowing a Halloween / Thanksgiving / Christmas special was on.

CBS needs to bring back the "bong" sound on television. Right before we see that closeup of Special Agent Gibbs.
-
@PitchfeverAcademy It's cause they've been pre-empted for this very special presentation.

TV8 cleveland!!! OMG! My hometown. TV8 always had awesome late nite shows especiaslly on Fridays: Big Chuck and Lil JOhn show (Holahan retired in 1981?). Man, do I miss TV from the 70;s and 80's even CBS's famous chime...
The Walton's do not look pleased.
