Uploaded January 2021 | Updated September 2026, 52 minutes ago
A partial station ID for KTIV (NBC affiliate for Sioux City, IA) and intro to The President's Cup. Found stored on an old hard drive of mine.
This is apparently the second version of the ident, featuring a mention of their digital subchannel (4.1) at the bottom of the screen. (beforehand, the first version would display 'KTIV-DT' below or above the 'KTIV Sioux City' text.) If I had to guess, this was used sometime after the digital switchover, performed four months before this was recorded.
Recorded before or during 'The President's Cup' on October 10, 2009. Captured using Hauppauge WinTV 7. No copyright infringement intended.

![Iowa Child Abduction Emergency Activation(s) - January 30, 2024 (pt. 1)
[As of a few hours after uploading, the child was recovered safely. (source: KCRG)]
First (uploaded) Emergency Alert System capture of the year: A Child Abduction Emergency/Amber Alert message for the state of Iowa, aired during the afternoon hours of January 30, 2024. First activation was received over Common Alerting Protocol (CAP), with the second being the local National Weather Service offices relay.
Per usual, the video feed utilizes a decommissioned Trilithic EASyPLUS receiving audio from a local radio station (KGLI-FM) and recorded onto a blank VHS tape (although the second activation was captured directly from the unit.)
Another activation was done with slightly updated details at the exact same time I went to upload this. It has been separated into its own upload: https://youtu.be/VCNAqBGjSS8 Iowa Child Abduction Emergency Activation(s) - January 30, 2024 (pt. 1)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/mP_mymvoEX8/mqdefault.jpg)
![Viacom Enterprises V-of-EAS* (1978/2018, videotaped)
[*nickname given to this particular capture.]
From a rerun of Cannon captured from KTIV-DT3 (MeTV) on February 7, 2018. The episode in question was Point After Death. This was captured using NextPVR and a WinTV HVR-850 ATSC tuner; trimmed with FFmpeg.
I uploaded this separately a few months after I captured it because a user on the CLG Wiki (now AVID) requested me to do so, thinking that since the EAS interrupted the logo, it counts as one of the many variations of the V-of-Doom. Not even I really considered it as such, but I decided to re-upload it on its own anyway.
Ironically, this is also the only time I have ever seen the Viacom V-of-Doom on MeTV. All of the other Cannon episodes Ive seen were plastered with the CBS Television Distribution logo or cut straight to the station ID. Speaking of, this upload also includes the localized MeTV station ID from around this time, although unlike a previous upload this one is presented in full.
For the ones that really care, the tones are powered by a Trilithic EASyCAST Encoder/Decoder. Viacom Enterprises V-of-EAS* (1978/2018, videotaped)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/mcDbBBphrGo/mqdefault.jpg)
![WHO-AM Tornado Warning Bulletin - March 5, 2022
[ a Frixs Media Archive 1st! ]
First EASyPLUS capture of the year (the Local Access Alert demonstration does not count), featuring a participant-issued Tornado Warning from WHO, Iowas statewide Primary Entry Point for EAS messages. For some reason, WHO toned the alert for the entire state of Iowa, which tripped KSUXs relay. (I dont remember KMNS going off for this event, as I think they only monitor WHO for the Monthlies and EANs, not weather warnings.)
This was recorded on March 5, 2022 at around 5:17 PM local time to a VHS tape, digitized using VirtualDub2 and deinterlaced with QTGMC. Video footage of a decommissioned Trilithic EASyPLUS receiving radio from KSUX-FM in Sioux City, IA.
[For the geeks: the tones in the video decode to ZCZC-EAS-TOR-019000-019053-019117-019185+0100-0642314-PjFrix -. Im unsure why anybody would want this information because its literally displayed on screen in the video.] WHO-AM Tornado Warning Bulletin - March 5, 2022](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/mu3d2Dj9Coo/mqdefault.jpg)
