I remember being a kid and getting up early on Saturday morning before the local station came on the air. The first thing to show up was a picture of their station, and the announcer said "This is WATE TV-6 in Knoxville, TN, beginning our broadcast day". They would proceed to a recording of a band playing "The Star Spangled Banner" with a background of military airplanes flying over.

When I was a kid, I never thought about watching TV all night long. All three of the stations we could pick up went off the air shortly after midnight.
