I remember waking up to that test pattern and the tone that went with it, which is probably what woke me up.

if the channels reverted to that today I wouldn't know anyway. Take my glasses off and can't see the screen and I certainly wouldn't hear that annoying tone anymore hehehe

Those are for the really cold areas, oh that's right your in a really cold area.......NYUK NYUK NYUK


Here is one of the first ones for network TV, it was designed to fit the old tubes, remember the top and bottom of the tube was cut off by the TV sets cabinet.

I always wondered what was above or below the edge of the cabinet, and what they were hiding, that's why I went into TV broadcasting.......The bottom had little legs holding up the picture, the top had a little cushion, to keep from hitting you head on the top of the tube.

Here's a new, modern test pattern.

I don't really get why it's there, what is the significance?

The first pattern that was on the floor, after Conan's late night slot was much more pronounced, if you recall, and watch Leno.
