Max mutters pop cultural phrases like "Catch the wave" (the catchphrase of New Coke, for which the real Headroom was then spokesperson) and "Your love is fading" (possibly a reference to The Temptations song "(I Know) I'm Losing You"). This time, the hijackers were able to successfully transmit their message, albeit with heavily distorted audio. A station spokesman later stated that by the time engineers could be dispatched, the incident had ended. Due to the late hour, there were no WTTW engineers available to reroute the signal, leaving technicians to monitor the situation but unable to stop it. This hijack briefly took over the regular programming on WTTW (a PBS station) during an airing of the Doctor Who episode "Horror of Fang Rock". The second hijacking took place around 11:15 PM CST on the same night. Max Headroom WTTW Pirating Incident - 11 22 87 (Subtitled) Roan returned to the screen, saying, "Well, if you're wondering what just happened, so am I." The intrusion ended after only a few seconds when WGN-TV engineers were able to switch the frequency of their studio feed to a different transmitter. The noise was likely due to a failure to hijack the station's audio frequencies. At approximately 9:14 PM CST, a sports broadcast by anchor Dan Roan was interrupted by a distorted, shaking background, an ominous buzzing noise, and the face of a man in a Max Headroom mask.
