Just came across this video again, great to see it again -- I wonder where Abe Lubekin and Bob Harp are today though... Oh and since 2009 KVIA has moved to physical channel 17 UHF.
What would be really cool would be if someone had the video of the frequency switch in 1981...until 1981, KVIA was channel 13 and KCOS (El Paso's PBS station) was channel 7 😊 They had a big to do broadcast like this. I think Stanley Marsh 3 (of Amarillo) still owned the station then.
The most normal channel number for an ABC O&O TV station is 7, like NBC's 4 or CBS' 2 (all aligned with their NYC and LA flagship stations, the ones that have W or K + the network's initials). There's no "normal number" for Fox or CW O&O's (there's no PBS O&O as they're a "confederation of owners").
meanwhile, Telemundo Channel 48 is still transmitting in analog! in 2017 !!!! Sun 1-29-17.

That's to distinguish the El Paso outfit from other ABC 7's.
