And wasn't it actually "Auntie Myrtle K. Hilo" that sang the jaunty jingle? Unsure.

"Kenny's, at the Kam Shopping Center in Kalihi ...." complete with warbly piano.

That was Hawaii Dental Service, if I remember correctly. Also, if I remember correctly, former broadcast newsman Ed Michelman (unsure of spelling) did the voice over. I could be wrong on that, but...

I knew the 'casts would be identical, I just meant I should have DVR'd both to see if the eight-seconds (or so) of delayed audio also would be apparent on KHNL.

Tee hee. I don't remember the last time I watched a single newscast all the way through in real-time, because I too, do what Diane mentioned. ^.^
There was no way I was going to make it up at 4:30a...

So was it just MY TV that had an audio/video synchronization glitch? I don't have HD, but watch via digital cable and DVR'd "Sunrise" @ 4:30a and the 5a show. Wanna weigh in, either on-the-record or...

Changes coming to KHNL/KFVE anchor line-up.
