HSV 7 Morning Open 1984

TV hasn't always been on air for 24 hours a day. Before the 1990s .. TV stations would shut down late at night and re-open around breakfast time. This is an example of the last days of this as Channel 7 Melbourne opens for business one morning in 1984. By the mid to late 1980s .. commercial TV in all the metro markets was 24 hours a day. Regional areas had to wait until the 1990s for this.
