<DIV><FONT size=4>Hi Ted... Here are the answers to your questions from
Fred:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>Sure! The Quads (there were 3: a TR1, a TR1A and a TR1C, for
color) were semi-retired when two Sony 2800 3/4's, with the manual elevator,
were obtained by the department sometime in late 76... Shortly after a 1" Ampex
was purchased and that was the end of the C. I personally did not witness the
removal of the TR'S because I left the U of M in March of 77 to start working as
WTVJ's news engineer and they were still there. Only the TR1 remained to
continue to reproduce material for the class rooms as we had a large stock of 2"
History recordings on the shelf. The person that was in charge of the
department, and retired a few year ago, is Victor Jugenheimer K4YSU.
He really knows the history...</FONT></DIV>

Do you know when they retired them and what they were replaced with?

<DIV>The name of the department was Video Services at the L.I.R.C building.
<BR>During that time we used to record different subject materials,
English,History etc. where History was the main stay. The material was
played to the different classrooms on a preset schedule via Hi-Intensity
(black and white ) rear projectors that were handled at that time by the
late Richard Vanhook (N4EV). As a part of the television production
courses, other student-produced programs were recorded for the learning
process. Judy Wallace was in charge. </DIV>
