If you're of a certain age, you can remember when technical problems arose often enough that stations had "Please Stand By" slides that they'd put up, usually with some Mantovani-style music playing in the background. I never saw this one for CBS (or one of its affiliates), but I'd love seeing it used today.
The cameraman appears apprehensive that the technician has a handle on the situation. I don't know about you, but I think I'd be on the phone to the Help Desk. TV
