logos.fandom.com

75 years ago today, on 22-December-1948, KPIX Chanel 5 became to first television station to begin regular broadcasting in Northern California. The transmitter, tower and Master Control were in the roof and attic of the Mark Hopkins Hotel. I have been watching local and CBS broadcasts all my life. I remember when Walter Cronkite did the Evening News. I liked Evening Magazine. I remember when Belva Davis was a reporter.
