There was some urban legend about the (6 ?) beep signals at the end if the TV day that supposedly shut down tv relay stations. You'd hear it as a last thing in the night when broadcasting shut down.
One legend said someone stopped all TV maliciously with it, another that a alarm clock on live TV did the same. Wonder if there was any truth to it.
