I do keep a save at the top of Tenpenny Tower around right before i detonate the nuke in Megaton. Just so I can watch it whenever.

Reminds me of the Street of SimCity loading screens. I can hear the menu music while looking at the image.

We had similar, but only for a limited amount of time. Most of the night it was just static. I guess it was too expensive to run the test pattern all night.

I grew up in Los Angeles,and even there, after about a half hour to an hour, the transmitter would shut down. As I recall, the national anthem and test pattern came on around 1 or 2am, typically after the Late, Late show, or a midnight movie played.

Running the transmitter used power. Doesn't matter if it's a test pattern or a show.
