DimBulb:






Found the source for these screenshots....

   On November 22, 1987, an unknown hacker in Chicago broadcast a pirate signal that overrode the CBS station (WGN), and then the PBS one (WTTW). The hacker, who dressed up like Max Headroom, was never caught.

Also... It seems there is a link between Max and Bryne - Max interviewed him in season 2 episode 6

S4 here and kind of noisy, missed the first SSTV and was late on the second one.  Playing lots of David Byrne/Talking Heads songs.
Thanks for the cool show!

Started the MMSSTV program late.

William Hassig:
@DimBulb, WGN-TV was never a CBS station. It started out Dumont in the late 1940's, then was independent, then was WB, and now is independent again. Now that it's digital on RF ch 19, 9.1 (1080i) is independent, 9.2 (480i) is antenna-tv and on 1 Nov 2013 this-tv moved from 26.5 to 9.3 (480i). BTW, WGN-AM720 was a mutual radio stn many years ago.
