Looks like KCCI must have been a 24/7 station at this point (although I've seen sign-ons on YouTube from 1988 and 1991; however, I believe the 1991 one happened on a weekday after CBS News Nightwatch concluded and the first program the following day started).

That could be I never really thought that they showed it when it was 24/7 but I guess it does make sense

I know that WSPA, the CBS affiliate in Greenville, SC showed the sign-on around 6am between the CBS Nightwatch/Morning News and local news at least in the early 90's (would have been between 1990 and 1994 when they were using their In the Center of it All slogan and before transitioning from 7 Eyewitness News to NewsChannel 7). They did not play the National Anthem or America the Beautiful at sign-on but had the Air Force's Split-Screen SSB for sign-off at least from 1989 to around '91 or '92, possibly until they went 24 hours daily in 1995).
