KWQC-TV in the Quad Cities, which are four cities two in Iowa and two in Illinois , has gone back to using one the more famous local news themes "Hello" by Frank Gari. The station is turning 75 next year on Halloween , so today they've decided to go back to using the theme on newscasts.

Pretty nice to see, no change in graphics. They used Hello from 1990-2012 , then switched to "Breakthrough" and now have gone back to using "Hello"
Probably one of the most successful news themes and local TV station jingle packages ever, it even made it to Canada and Australia. It was first used at WISN-TV in Milwaukee in the late 70's.
