@tkal420 That's right, I remember those. Same graphics and the same music.
So that's why it looks and sounds familiar.

They borrowed the NBC O&O Graphics used by KNBC and WMAQ.

@SkylineToTheSeaAndMe Wow every Time I hear the Tower Theme I keep think about Paul Moyer on KNBC.

great news station

Actually, I had been watching channel 11 in the Gill Cable days (when they were an ABC station) on cable channel 3 circa 1976 - 1979 at least. They wanted to use the lower (and thus more sought after VHF channel) but it conflicted with KCRA
(the Sacramento NBC station). Also I heard many years ago that the Navy was sometimes broadcasting on VHF 3. If watching an an analog signal on 2 or 3
(which both came in weak down here) you could hear intermittent naval communications between the static.

Can someone explained to me WHY they're channel 3?

Channel 3 is where they were added to most cable systems when they joined NBC. At the time the transmitter was located just south of San Jose, so the station was not avaliabe over the air from about the San Mateo Bidge north. So, Granite decided to brand it by it's cable channel location. NBC had just recently bought KNTV before I recorded this and they were not impressed with the virual channel branding, so it was switched to NBC 11 in the fall.

how long did they go with the "virtual channel" perception?

It was only for their first few months as an NBC O&O. They rebranded to NBC 11 News in the fall of 2002.
