everything in NTSC and transcode to PAL-M at transmission. This was due
to so little equipment being available in the PAL-M format. If the quad
tapes are actually in PAL-M there are some later model Ampex AVR-2 or RCA
TR-600 machines that can be made to play in PAL-M. I have a working
TR-600 that I believe may have that format on the demod, but I would need a
PAL-M sync generator to playback properly.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

I am new to the list. I have spoken with Ted a few times and he has been very
helpful.<br>
I work as the Preservation Director of the Cinemateca Brasileira (Brazilian
Film Archives). <br>
We have a few thousand reels of 2 inch tape from early brazilian television
that we need to migrate. We know that the tapes are all PAL-M, which is the
early format of brazilian TV (now all is NTSC). I did see a Quad machine in the
States, but it was NTSC. <br>
Does anyone know of a machine that we could purchase in the States that would
play PAL-M tapes? <br>
I have someone that can work and fix machines, so even if it is not working,
this person might be able to fix it.<br>
I would appreciate any help.<br>
Thanks much,<br>
