Initially uploaded to FrixTheSecond around June 15, 2018, but never published until now.
Recorded during an episode of The Jeffersons on KTIV-DT3 (MeTV), captured through my Insignia NS-DXA1 (alas, during a time when I didn't have an HDMI capture device nor a VCR.) This episode happens to be one of many that don't have the 'Sony Pictures Television' logo plastered at the end.
This recording was not only done during a Tornado Watch, but also is the only clip thus far to feature the old KTIV 'Storm Team 4' graphics package at the bottom of the screen. Later in the year they changed it to a 'reverse L-bar' with information on the side and the ticker on the bottom.

Found this on an old storage drive belonging to an old computer. I vaguely remember downloading it forever ago but dont exactly remember where exactly I put it. Guess that has been figured out now!
Semi-recently I also attempted to remake this before I found this copy:

![DIRECTV Nexstar dispute loop (2023, complete)
[For the curious, this dispute has been long resolved. I havent bothered updating the description because its not really worth updating for that alone. You can look it up yourself, cant you?]
Seems like DIRECTV and Nexstar got into another dispute this year. Rather than provide a boring slide set to stock music, they produced an entire loop to inform customers whats been going on and what they can do.
Recorded on July 19, 2023 via DIRECTV Stream. The channel being recorded was KCAU-TV, a Nexstar-owned ABC affiliate. DIRECTV Nexstar dispute loop (2023, complete)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/wRz-SibPmVU/mqdefault.jpg)
![(Michigan) Comcast Required Weekly Test - June 20, 2006
[raw decode: ZCZC-EAS-RWT-026163-026125-026115-026099-026161+0015-1711159-Comcast -]
This was previously uploaded to YouTube a while back, though was incomplete. The original source happened to be from an encoded TVRip of a Spongebob SquarePants episode. Features the classic Texscan-MSI based Emergency Alert System slide with tones potentially generated by a Gorman-Redlich Emergency Alert System encoder.
Recorded on June 20, 2006, during an 8 AM airing of the SpongeBob SquarePants episode Krab-Borg. (followed by Rock-a-Bye Bivalve, but you probably already knew that.)
(* This video features valid Emergency Alert System tones. I will not be held responsible for purposeful misuse of them. *)
(** In addition, please DO NOT ask for the link to the TVRip. The last thing Id want is ViacomCBS (or Paramount Global as theyre referred to now) to get after me. Look for it yourself. **) (Michigan) Comcast Required Weekly Test - June 20, 2006](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/wz84zr1geOM/mqdefault.jpg)



![Iowa Child Abduction Emergency Message - June 15, 2021
[message has been cancelled as of 10:45 PM CDT on June 15; child was recovered safely.]
Iowa gets their seemingly annual Amber Alert relayed over NOAA WX, however not much information was sent out regarding who was or who caused the bulletin, despite it being listed otherwise off-air.
Actually recording this alert was a nightmare, as due to a number of different reasons:
- EASyPLUS audio was too loud at first (it was quiet per another upload, so a bit after uploading that I adjusted the volume to 30, which led to this), leading me to wait until the alert was over to correct it.
- Accidentally overwriting a portion of one of my home recorded tapes (forgetting it was in the VCR as of recording this)
- Having to re-encode the message two times, the second one not even including the voice message since it was interrupted
- Forgetting there was a portion in one of the separate recordings where I accidentally unplugged the sound from my EASyPLUS, accidentally cutting off a portion of the message and having to reupload it (in other words, the reason why this video was uploaded twice.)
tl;dr; Recording the alert was a nightmare because my EASyPLUS and recording setup did not want to cooperate with me. Iowa Child Abduction Emergency Message - June 15, 2021](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xu6ZuxebdJI/mqdefault.jpg)
![Carmike Cinemas (1999-02, re-upload w/ 5.1 DTS audio)
[FT Depot has uploaded a better quality version of this, minus the 5.1 track: https://youtu.be/pAR5PwVyLEs]
I apologize for the visuals, the only HQ clip of this snipe that currently exists online was sourced from a 16mm print and had a watermark plastered over it (probably with good, though unmentioned intentions attached.) There seems to have been a much higher quality capture uploaded at one point, but I dont think anybody has preserved that particular upload at this time.
5.1 audio originates from a DTS theatrical audio disc for Rugrats Go Wild courtesy of SoraThePanFloof.
Original capture was uploaded by CaponeFilms: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcsVuCtSN7Y Carmike Cinemas (1999-02, re-upload w/ 5.1 DTS audio)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/yK7z3_STkNk/mqdefault.jpg)
