TVDX as received from

Metro Detroit, MI

Summer 1978

Equipment used: Zenith Beta VCR, Archer V-100 and U-100 antennas at 25 feet

This is a sample of some TV DX I was able to videotape in the summer of 1978. Many of these stations can no longer be received in the Detroit area due to closer in stations broadcasting 24 hours per day. Also many stations now seem to ID only when they absolutely have to, with call letters as small as possible on the screen, making ID images harder to grab.

All of the pictures on this page were grabbed from the original Beta videotape they were recorded on. As far as I know, these are probably the only videotaped TV DX images on the internet from the late 1970's.

Update July 2005, I was able to find and grab several more images from my old tapes.
