I've got several more Dateline episodes out in the storage, mostly 1994-1998 broadcasts. Remember when NBC programmed it 4-5 nights a week?
Stumbled across this video tonight...and whoever this is saving recorded TV tapes from the Goodwill bins...THANK YOU Think about this: anyone who goes to a Goodwill Outlet to buy from the bins has only a limited time to snag the items from the bins before they are rolled away. For VHS...to the landfill. To think how much lost media (including local newscasts) was donated to Goodwill only to be tossed forever.
BTW, the University of Montana would like to have my Beta copies of the '82 and '83 Montana-MSU rivalry games that I found on Beta
So I am making DVD copies and sending the Betas directly to them as a gift!

Just checked a small lot of five VHS tapes from someone living in Oregon, with three keepers. Of the two duds, one was nothing but snowy audio (my hunch was an erased All My Children episode with the "Erica & boyfriends" label), and the other contained four episodes of the 1990 PBS Series Reclaiming and Championing Your Inner Child, hosted by John Bradshaw, of which the series is already posted online.
TAPE 1: Titanic: Breaking New Ground recorded off KPDX/FOX on 2/13/1998 with a few commercials, followed by about seven minutes from the KPDX Ten O'Clock news from the same night with a few commercials, the rest of the tape bulk erased. Maxelll T-120, EP mode
TAPE 2: Most of ABC News Primetime Live recorded off KATU/ABC (from Moscow) on 1/18/1990 with commercials, followed by a little over half of an episode of Oprah Winfrey from mid-January 1990 also taped off KATU with commercials, followed by the last ten minutes of an unknown movie taped off an unknown pay cable network, followed by the last few minutes of Oprah and the first 35 minutes of the KATU 5 PM News on 12/21/1989 with commercials, then it cuts to the last eight minutes of a religious show hosted by John Bradshaw off an unknown station circa December 1989 with no commercials, followed by the last portion of the Buffalo Bills/Seattle Seahawks ABC Monday Football Game (begins with around four minutes remaining in the game that includes the results of the best MNF game of the '70s poll) along with most of A Current Affair taped off KATU on 12/4/1989 with commercials, then it wraps up with an ABC News Special Report and part of Nightline (on the Loma Prieta earthquake) taped off KATU on 10/18/1989 with a couple commercial breaks. Master T-120, EP mode for all except for the 12/4/1989 portion which was in SP
TAPE 3: Most of All My Children taped off KATU/ABC on 11/21/1995 with commercials, followed by a little over half of part one of the Beatles Anthology, the KATU 11 PM News, Siskel & Ebert (notably includes reviews of Toy Story and Goldeneye), and about three-quarters of Save Our Streets (it was an hour in its first two years of its four year run) taped off KATU/ABC on 11/19/1995 with commercials. Maxell T-120, LP mode
It's hard to believe that this thread is about to turn 20 years old, around the time the last widely available VHS release by a major studio, "A History of Violence" was released, and when both blank tapes and VCRs (including DVD combo units) were still productive. Now there are entire retro/vintage-oriented businesses catered to these analog classics. However, it still doesn't quite capture the lore of "random" tapes that users like us did, leaving us with a bevy of material that will look back at an era that limited run on demand services won't provide outside of the screen capturers, which are essentially the closest thing we have to VCRs that can preserve media. Even though home-recorded videotapes in the wild have steadily dropped as more people move on, pass, or downsize, and they will become even less frequent in 20 years from now, they will continue to remain time capsules that hopefully future generations will cherish.

RabbitEars.info says neither market is a satellite of the other.
There's no such thing as a satellite market, only individual stations that have satellite status (which really these days only affects whether they count against market ownership limits).
I'm not sure these days where satellite status is even indicated in LMS. It doesn't appear to be reflected anywhere on RabbitEars or FCCdata that I can readily find.

That's what I meant, and you knew that, Scott.
@tripinva can correct me if I am wrong, but I always understood that in his listings a double slash // in the far right column followed by the calls of another station meant a satellite (full simulcast) of that station.
It’s the same market. Trip doesn’t post markets via the Nielsen map
The stations are kinda semi satellites. Same programming sans commercials
Attachments
Correct. It’s more of a translator than a satellite. A satellite station to me is KCCW in Walker, MN. A full powered station that is owned by CBS and is paired with mothership WCCO Minneapolis

Maybe that's why he doesn't use the // for those. I dunno.
The // indicates a full simulcast, but that's not the same thing as FCC "satellite" status. A station licensed as a satellite not only doesn't have to be a full simulcast, it very often isn't.
That goes back at least as far as 1956, when my nearest satellite station, channel 18 in Elmira, hit the air. Originally WSYE, it was a satellite of WSYR in Syracuse well into the 1980s (as WETM and WSTM), but had its own local news and ads and even a kids show all along.
Satellite stations don't even have to carry ANY of their parent's programming these days. Sinclair in the Wilkes-Barre Scranton market operates a satellite, WQMY 53 Williamsport, along with WOLF-TV (Fox) and WSWB (CW) in the core of the market. WQMY has a completely separate programming lineup with MyNetwork and syndicated fare that's also carried on WOLF's 56.3, while WOLF and WSWB reach Williamsport viewers on WQMY subchannels. There's another example on Long Island, where WFTY 67 used to be a full simulcast satellite of WFUT 68 Newark but now carries UniMas from WFUT on a subchannel and something entirely different on 67.1.
As best I understand the FCC's current use of the satellite status, it's meant to retain some full-power TV service to areas that can't support local TV on a standalone basis and which would be abandoned by operators if those licenses counted against market caps - places like Williamsport, Lufkin and Big Springs TX, western Kansas beyond Wichita, the outer Hawaiian islands, and most of New Mexico outside Albuquerque.
I don't think most of those satellites still do much in the way of local news or even cutaways the way they once did. The last time I was through western Kansas a few years ago, everything on the satellites was just a straight feed from Wichita.
KEPR and KIMA separate from each other for 5 and 6pm news only...the rest are simulcast except for some local ads that are geared towards Tri or Yakima. For decades, the Yakima stations fed to Tri-Cities and the master control in Tri-Cities would cut away for 2-3 local ads and go back to the Yakima station's feed to rejoin the network. Not necessarily the case anymore.
I was happy to find the little cutaway clip from KUMV Williston in the dream Glendive Beta lot some months ago. I also have part of a KXMD newscast to upload from 1984.
No VHS found last weekend, hit three estate sales with no luck. The one lone tape I found was a home movie (unlabeled). One of the estate sale operators told me that a better sale is coming at the end of the month - they mentioned tapes as well.

There is also WYMT in Hazard KY. Wikipedia lists them as a semi-satellite of WKYT Lexington, but for all practical purposes they are a standalone station with their own syndicated programming and separate offering of subchannels. They are both CBS affiliates, and WYMT simulcasts some WKYT newscasts as well as having their own, which are of excellent quality for a station of that size, but that is where the commonality ends.
I saw that same video that crainbebo linked the other day. I must have spotted at least 30 recorded VHS tapes in those Goodwill bins throughout that video.
On that note, last week, I took a little road trip into Canton to peruse the Goodwill Outlet store there...and boy, was I in luck! Not only did I find recorded VHS tapes but also recorded Betamax tapes and audiocassettes! Here's what I ended up taking home.
First the Beta tapes, starting with one containing a recording from a local indie station I never thought I'd find anything from:
BETA 1: Eight O'clock Movie presentation of The Karate Kid Part III (1989) taped from WUAB circa 1992 minus commercials; end of a Canton-Akron Indians game against the New Brittain Red Sox (oh, if only that hadn't gotten taped over!), CNN Headline News joined in progress, Concept with Sherry Lee (only a few minutes of it because throughout the recording it seemed like the control room operators didn't know what they were doing), Club Golf Presented by Golf Magazine and partial episode of WKRP in Cincinnati taped from *WOAC* on 7/1/1992 with commercials; partial episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation (can verify this was not an original broadcast) and partial Late Show presentation of The Night Before (1988) taped from WUAB in May 1992 with commercials. Sony L-750.
BETA 2: The Perfect Tribute (1991 ABC made-for-TV movie) taped from WEWS on 8/23/1992 minus commercials; partial broadcast of Good Morning America taped from WEWS on 8/27/1992 with commercials; clips of various news coverage of the aftermath of Hurricane Andrew (News Channel 5, ABC World News Tonight with Peter Jennings and Prime Time Live) taped from WEWS on 8/28/1992, 8/31/1992 and 9/3/1992; The Little Mermaid: A Whale of a Tale (CBS animated special) taped from WJW on 9/11/1992 minus commercials; partial episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation (again, verified as not an original broadcast) and partial Eight O'clock Movie presentation of Welcome Home (1989) taped from WUAB in September 1992 with commercials. Sony L-750.
BETA 3: ABC Sunday Night Movie presentation of Patriot Games (1992) taped from WEWS on 2/19/1995 minus commercials; Rush Limbaugh taped from WKYC in February 1995 with commercials; partial episode of Rush Limbaugh taped from WKYC on 12/16/1994 with commercials; Rush Limbaugh taped from WKYC on 12/21/1994 with commercials; end of Late Night with Conan O'Brien and another episode of Rush Limbaugh taped from WKYC on 12/22/1994 with commercials; partial episode of Rush Limbaugh taped from WKYC in October 1994 with commercials (in one of these episodes, Rush mentions CBS rerunning the Hearts Afire episode in which he guest starred). Sony L-750.
Now for the VHS tapes. Did find a couple of duds, one of them being a rental dub of Prefontaine (1997) with opening previews included, and the tape it was dubbed on started with a quick jumble of previous TV recordings...but nothing after the movie because whoever dubbed it left the blank tape recording long after the movie ended with only a blank signal coming from the other VCR afterward. Most of the local content here is from the Pittsburgh market, save for some from the much smaller market of Steubenville/Wheeling.

Sony T-120.
TAPE 9: Four full episodes and one partial episode of The Andy Griffith Show taped from TBS during the 8 Great Hours of Andy marathon on 1/26/1992, commercials on last two episodes only. TDK T-120.
As for the audiocassettes I got, three were unmarked, but a fourth supposedly contains a recording of a service or an event at the Trinity Cathedral Episcopal Church in Cleveland broadcast on WCLV in December 1991. Will have to listen to those later.
I certainly plan on coming back to that Goodwill Outlet store, just not sure how soon with it being as far from my neck of the woods as it is. Good thing is I didn't feel uncomfortable or intimidated in any of the areas I had to drive through along the way to get there unlike the one time I went to the Goodwill Outlet in Akron...and ended up not finding anything I wanted.
Now to scavenge through four VHS tapes given to me by my aunt. She wanted me to let her know what was on each of them in case any had any family home movies. The closest thing to that I ended up finding was a tape containing a news story done by News Channel 8 (local cable news channel in Washington D.C.) on a service project my cousin in Virginia participated in with his fifth grade class at a hotel in Reston. He was actually interviewed by the reporter in this news package. Looks like my uncle in Herndon (his dad) who recorded this taped some other programming afterward, so it will be interesting to see what else is on it, but my aunt will definitely be getting this tape back after I digitize a copy for myself. I actually remember watching that tape at her place when I was little.
There's also a tape of a Backstreet Boys concert special on CBS, which afterward cuts to news coverage from CNN on September 11, 2001. Just did a first glance of this, so unknown as of yet if the concert was a later recording that taped over part of the 9/11 news footage or if it was an earlier recording beforehand.
Lastly are two unlabeled tapes of random TV shows my aunt recorded in the late 2000s (one of them dates back to 2009, given an ad for the movie The Proposal). Both of these, however, are in rough quality. I think this might have been when the Philips Magnavox VCR she had for as long as she did was about ready to bite the dust because, if I'm not mistaken, I think it was just before Christmastime in 2009 when she upgraded from basic cable to Cox digital cable and got a DVR. She's a soap opera fan (specifically Y&R, B&B and GL), and I noticed the first two in one of those tapes. Other shows included Battlestar Galactica on the Sci-Fi Channel and a rerun of The Practice on FX, among others I probably haven't seen yet.
My aunt was a fairly early VCR owner despite not having gotten cable until 1999. Having visited her house often growing up, I remember seeing some of the older '80s-era tapes she had recorded sitting around her living room, one of them I remember being the North and South miniseries on ABC, and another a WEWS special about the local show Upbeat with Don Webster. I also remember her showing me a tape she had of Whitney Houston singing the National Anthem at Super Bowl XXV some years after that game took place. After the game itself started, I remember the tape cutting to a weekend broadcast of CBS Evening News, also from 1991. I doubt she has either of those anymore though.
On that note, last week, I took a little road trip into Canton to peruse the Goodwill Outlet store there...and boy, was I in luck! Not only did I find recorded VHS tapes but also recorded Betamax tapes and audiocassettes! Here's what I ended up taking home.
First the Beta tapes, starting with one containing a recording from a local indie station I never thought I'd find anything from:
BETA 1: Eight O'clock Movie presentation of The Karate Kid Part III (1989) taped from WUAB circa 1992 minus commercials; end of a Canton-Akron Indians game against the New Brittain Red Sox (oh, if only that hadn't gotten taped over!), CNN Headline News joined in progress, Concept with Sherry Lee (only a few minutes of it because throughout the recording it seemed like the control room operators didn't know what they were doing), Club Golf Presented by Golf Magazine and partial episode of WKRP in Cincinnati taped from *WOAC* on 7/1/1992 with commercials; partial episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation (can verify this was not an original broadcast) and partial Late Show presentation of The Night Before (1988) taped from WUAB in May 1992 with commercials. Sony L-750.
BETA 2: The Perfect Tribute (1991 ABC made-for-TV movie) taped from WEWS on 8/23/1992 minus commercials; partial broadcast of Good Morning America taped from WEWS on 8/27/1992 with commercials; clips of various news coverage of the aftermath of Hurricane Andrew (News Channel 5, ABC World News Tonight with Peter Jennings and Prime Time Live) taped from WEWS on 8/28/1992, 8/31/1992 and 9/3/1992; The Little Mermaid: A Whale of a Tale (CBS animated special) taped from WJW on 9/11/1992 minus commercials; partial episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation (again, verified as not an original broadcast) and partial Eight O'clock Movie presentation of Welcome Home (1989) taped from WUAB in September 1992 with commercials. Sony L-750.
BETA 3: ABC Sunday Night Movie presentation of Patriot Games (1992) taped from WEWS on 2/19/1995 minus commercials; Rush Limbaugh taped from WKYC in February 1995 with commercials; partial episode of Rush Limbaugh taped from WKYC on 12/16/1994 with commercials; Rush Limbaugh taped from WKYC on 12/21/1994 with commercials; end of Late Night with Conan O'Brien and another episode of Rush Limbaugh taped from WKYC on 12/22/1994 with commercials; partial episode of Rush Limbaugh taped from WKYC in October 1994 with commercials (in one of these episodes, Rush mentions CBS rerunning the Hearts Afire episode in which he guest starred). Sony L-750.
Now for the VHS tapes. Did find a couple of duds, one of them being a rental dub of Prefontaine (1997) with opening previews included, and the tape it was dubbed on started with a quick jumble of previous TV recordings...but nothing after the movie because whoever dubbed it left the blank tape recording long after the movie ended with only a blank signal coming from the other VCR afterward. Most of the local content here is from the Pittsburgh market, save for some from the much smaller market of Steubenville/Wheeling.
TAPE 1: All parts of the A&E miniseries Dogs taped in December 1993 minus most commercials. Polaroid T-120.
TAPE 2: The Canterville Ghost (1986 made-for-TV movie) taped from WPTT in August 1988 with commercials; Movie Greats at 8 presentation of Romeo and Juliet (1954) taped from WPTT in August 1988 with commercials. Kodak T-120.
TAPE 3: The Three Tenors in Concert 1994 taped from WQED on 7/17/1994 with pledge breaks; partial broadcast of The Man with the Golden Gun (1974) taped from TBS in March 1991 with commercials. Maxell T-120.
TAPE 4: End of an episode of Supercarrier and ABC Sunday Night Movie presentation of Tootsie (1982) taped from WTAE on 3/27/1988 with commercials; Adam's Rib (1949) taped from WPXI in May 1988 with commercials; Channel 11 Weekend Movie Matinee presentation of The Blues Brothers (1980) taped from WPXI in May 1988 with commercials. Scotch T-120.
TAPE 5: ABC Sunday Night Movie presentation of Pretty Woman (1990) taped from WTAE on 11/1/1992 minus commercials; In Concert/MTV Plugged with Bruce Springsteen taped from MTV on 11/11/1992 minus most commercials. Universal T-120.
TAPE 6: Partial broadcast of Today (in Seattle) taped from WTOV on 5/22/1989 with commercials; Family Ties syndicated episode taped from WTOV on 5/22/1989 with commercials; another Family Ties syndicated episode taped from WTOV on 5/23/1989 minus commercials; Gilad's Bodies in Motion taped from ESPN on 5/23/1989 with commercials; partial broadcast of part two of I Know My First Name Is Steven (NBC miniseries) taped from WTOV on 5/23/1989 with commercials (already have both parts of this taped from WBZ in Boston with commercials); Family Ties (syndicated) and partial episode of Three's Company taped from WTOV in May 1989 with commercials; partial ABC Sunday Night Movie presentation of Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) taped from WTAE on 2/12/1989 with commercials. Focal T-120.
TAPE 7: Parts one and two of Young Catherine (TNT miniseries) taped from TNT on February 17 and 18, 1991 with commercials. Kodak T-120.
TAPE 8: Northern Exposure taped from KDKA on 9/28/1992 with commercials; Evening Shade and Murphy Brown taped from KDKA on 10/5/1992 minus most commercials; Northern Exposure taped from KDKA on 10/5/1992 with commercials; Northern Exposure taped from KDKA on 11/2/1992 with commercials; Northern Exposure taped from WTRF on 11/18/1992 with commercials; partial Pittsburgh Pirates Television Network broadcast (Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Florida Marlins) and Hillary: America's First Lady (NBC special joined in progress) taped from WTOV on 6/10/1993 with commercials; partial episode of Evening Shade taped from WTRF on 6/14/1993 with commercials. Sony T-120.
TAPE 9: Four full episodes and one partial episode of The Andy Griffith Show taped from TBS during the 8 Great Hours of Andy marathon on 1/26/1992, commercials on last two episodes only. TDK T-120.

So my tape scanning VCR is on the fritz, I posted the issue in another tech group, but for those curious, here is a video of what is going on:
Basically the tracking goes out every 15-20 seconds or so, and the time code on the VCR barely advances.
Now for pre VHS going to crap finds...
