WAVE 3 News 6pm Open 1998

WAVE Louisville

From Christmas day 1998. Listen for the beep at about the one minute mark. This was to signify the top of the hour. One beep would sound at the top of the hour and two beeps would sound at the bottom of the hour. WAVE would do this 24 hours a day, even during NBC programming, throughout the late 90s.

Why did they stop doing the beep noises. Did viewer's complain?

I think it probably had something to do with them coming under direct control of The Liberty corporation in 2000. This was when the beeps stopped. After seeing one of indylre's videos, I now realize that the beep goes back to at least 1987.
