KAKM

Background
KAKM started broadcasting on May 7, 1975. It is the flagship station of Alaska Public Television, since it replaced KAKM in 2012.

1st (Known) Logo (1978?-1990?)
Logo: On a background with a bunch of different colored "7"s (which is KAKM's logo), we see the following text:

Translators K67AY  Bird Creek K05FW  Girdwood K12LA   Kenai, Soldotna K48AC   North Kenai K05FU   Sutton KAKM Anchorage

Variant: There is a variant that does not have the list of translators, instead having the text "KAKM Anchorage" in the same font as the list of translators in the middle of the screen.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: An announcer saying "Public Television for South Central Alaska, this is KAKM channel 7 Anchorage."

Music/Sounds Variant: An unknown song playing with an announcer saying, "You're watching KAKM, Channel 7, public television in Anchorage."

Availability: Extinct. Used as a station ID at the time.

Legacy: This is a very rare station ID, considering it is Alaska Public Television from the 1970s. It is also a logo that was used 3 years after they signed on the air.

2nd (Known) Logo (Late 1980's/1990-1994)


Logo/ID: On a blue gradient background with a large 7, the words "KAKM Anchorage", with 'KAKM' larger and directly above 'Anchorage', slowly zoom in.

Variant: There is a variant that has the logo still with the text from above instead placed above the 7. At the bottom of the 7 in script-like text reads "The channel of choice."

FX/SFX: For the main logo, the zooming of the text. The variant is still.

Music/Sounds: An announcer saying: "The channel of choice. Channel 7, Anchorage."

Music/Sound Variant: A piece of "Dreamin'" by George Benson and Earl Klugh with an announcer saying: "You're watching KAKM, Channel 7, Anchorage."

Availability: Uncommon. It appears on most programs aired by the company during this logo's run, and is preserved on AAPB prints of said programs.
