Though a lot of folks on here are too young to know it, this is what you commonly found on most TV stations after about 10pm every weeknight when they signed off for the day and was typically displayed until 5 or 6am the following morning when I was a youngster.

I can't remember there being any 24hr TV stations until sometime in the 70s.

I had seen this a few times as a kid, but mostly remember the colored bars with the black across the bottom...
I wish there was still a channel that showed these test patterns to make it easier to fine tune the settings on my tv...
