That's amazing, that those four channels in New York still air today. Of those four, only WPIX, Channel 11, still uses its call letters here in 2012, as a CW affiliate. The other three are now using different call letters (Channel 4 went from WRCA to WNBC in 1960, Channel 5 from WNEW to WNYW-Fox 5 in 1986 and Channel 13 from WNTA to WNDT, going public in 1962, and to WNET in 1970).

This was well before my time, but I find this fascinating! I still remember one Thanksgiving Eve, our car broke down. We had to stay in a hotel and watch the Thanksgiving Day Parade! (back in 1999)

I had one of these and loved it. Became a pilot in mid 80's probably because of it.
