2nd Logo (Startup; 1970-1995)
Visuals: On a sky, we see the flag of Japan waving. It later fades into a satellite dish rotating. A few seconds later, we see the white text NHK zoom in. After the NHK text zooms in, the text "総合テレビジョン" (general television) in white appears under it.
Variants: Starting in 1984, the sky background is cloudier and it has a purple tint to it. The spacing between the "NHK" letters is also wider the NHK text fades in before moving and the "総合テレビジョン" text now slides in. The text is now outlined.
Technique: Live-action.
Audio: A patriotic fanfare starting with ascending chimes with some "ding-dong" sounds.
