[QUOTE="OKNewshawk, post: 3254041, member: 6592"] I was 16. We had (IIRC) our first color TV--a 1968 Zenith round tube TV made in the USA (Dad wouldn't have it any other way!) It was late and my parents were asleep (or Dad on at work as a policeman in town) so I watched it on WFIL-TV 6, the Philadelphia ABC affiliate, while listening to the audio with headphones by tuning the stereo system to the bottom of the FM dial (people from Tilsa probably remember doing this with KOTV-6.) I preferred to watch ABC as they had Jules Bergman--while Walter Cronkite was everyone's uncle, Jules Bergman had gone through the astronaut training so he could give more detailed reporting on America's space program. Those memories linger, fifty years on... [/QUOTE]
