Re:Image:KOAT_Logo.png - Disney?

You're correct that the station is not own by ABC/Disney, I changed the logo copyrights for stations that have the Circle-7 or ABC logos on their logo which are ABC/Disney Copyrights

KTVX

You have received this message because you have edited a Salt Lake City media article in the past. We have recently had an edit war regarding the wording and inclusion of a paragraph on the KTVX article. In hopes of resolving this I have put together an informal survey. If you are interested, please stop by Talk:KTVX and add a vote. Thanks, A 09:20, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

Coming to NM

Howdy, Oddtodd! Just wanted to say hello because I am currently considering making a move out to Albuquerque...I have found that a great way to get to know people is to contact Wikipedians in a given area, so if you would like to talk about New Mexico, or Wikipedia, or whatever, let me know.

Your job sounds interesting...I myself have been trying to start out with Wikinews and perhaps upload some video of newsworthy events. If you ever would like to collaborate on something along those lines, I would be thrilled to finally do it.

Perhaps if/when I get to Albuquerque we can hold the first ever WP meetup there! Best, Paul 04:58, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

More Information on KOB-TV

Hi there,

You don't mention which station you hail from, but I am an alum of KOB-TV, circa 2001. I'm a nerd at heart, and like you, interested in local TV history.

One of your pages referenced the fact you were looking for more information on KOB, and I didn't know if you were familiar with the book "KOB: Goddard's Magic Mast". It was written in the early 70's by a grad student at NMSU. When I left the Land of Entrapment (pun intented, (c) 2000 Mark Horner, used with permission), the Albuquerque Public Library had only one copy, in the New Mexico Collections library (or something like that). You can't check it out, but you can borrow it to read within the library.

Last I checked, there were a few copies floating around the state. One was at a used bookstore in Las Cruces. At the time they listed it on their website, but didn't sell via phone or internet, and by the time I made it that far out of town, it had been lost. They said it would proabably surface eventually. There was also a copy at the used bookstore that is across the street from the Frontier Restaurant, but they wanted an outrageous amount for it, and they're probably out of business by now anyway.

There were surprisingly few copies floating around KOB itself, and very few people even knew such a book existed. Mike Burgess had a copy in his office, but by the time I realized that, I'd already read it.

Anyhow, the book was less than 100 pages, an easy read sitting at the library. Worth a look if you're interested.

I don't know if this interests you (or anyone), but the KASA studios (upstairs at KOB-TV) are where the old KOB-AM and FM studios were. When they were installing the new set, they tossed tons of cool old-time radio stuff. Enough carts to sink a ship.  :-)

Conroy Chino and the EWN4 Investigative Unit used a large corner of the second floor as their office, until they were displaced by the new studio.

Best of luck at UNM, and with your journalism career.

KASY-TV

KUPT-TV in Hobbs has no affiliation with KASY-TV....KUPT in Hobbs is with KMYL-TV in Lubbock. However KASY-TV can be seen in Hobbs on cable channel 13

I didn't put that in, but thank you. --Oddtoddnm 07:22, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
