Station history plaqueOn file

Color-bar test card. A station history plaque is burned into the lower third of the tube.

PLAQUE TRANSCRIPT, FOR THE RECORD:

INSPECTRON BROADCAST AUTHORITY — STATION HISTORY PLAQUE
"FIRST BROADCAST: SANDS HOTEL & CASINO, LAS VEGAS.
ROUGHLY ONE HUNDRED VIEWERS TUNED IN. ONE MAN RAN THE BOARD.
WE HAVE BEEN ON THE AIR EVERY SUMMER SINCE.
DIAL OUR SIGN-ON YEAR."

The plaque speaks of the station, not the building. The station is younger than the hotel and louder every year.
