The QUBE studio, for anyone wondering was at 1201 Olentangy River Road. The current building is Miller's Ale House.

What a time to be alive! This had to be absolutely mind blowing back then. Thanks so much for posting these videos.

I miss the old WUAB 43, WXIX 19 & WTBS.
Channel 43 Plays Favorites!

I remember QUBE very well. My family had this for awhile. Thanks for bringing these memories back.

Many of the old independents were treated as regional superstations by cable systems. WKBD in Detroit was on practically every system in the state of Michigan, plus NW Ohio and perhaps NE Indiana as well.

In the late 1970s, while growing up in Charleston, WV, we received WXIX TV 19 from Cincinnati, Ohio, before they became a FOX TV station.

This video triggers all sorts of childhood flashbacks...

At 4:44. that's my voice. In college. Qubed for posterity.

Nice!

@bob121652 Yeah, I know how that was like. Toledo had the advantage of being close to Detroit in case one of our locals decided not to show something that night or elsewhere during the day.
