<DIV id=AOLMsgPart_3_cd2130c9-87fd-4dbe-9f63-84635ebb6e35>
<DIV>And now for something totally different:</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Just ran across the Western Australia TV History site, and this
page:</DIV>
<DIV><A
href="http://watvhistory.com/2009/03/peter-croft-evolution-of-transmission-facilities/"
target=_blank>http://watvhistory.com/2009/03/peter-croft-evolution-of-transmission-facilities/</A></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>which has a lot of Quad pix and a good story to tell.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>About a third of the way down, you'll see a delay system with tube TRT
machine feeding tape over to a TR-3? for playback. </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Ampex ACR-25's are present... along with other Ampex and RCA Quads.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>What's interesting is that Type C BVH-2000P's replaced many of the Quads,
but they were using Bosch BCN B-format machines for time zone delay.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Scroll all the way town for a collection of pix with a lot of quads to be
seen, and an HS-200 disc recorder.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>It shows that Quad was still being used in 1992... via the ACR-25's, and
there's a C/U of the head assembly and vacuum columns on an AVR-1 in
1996.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>This collection is also on Flicker:</DIV>
<DIV><A href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/watvhistory/3365509644/"
target=_blank>http://www.flickr.com/photos/watvhistory/3365509644/</A>
shows the VT area... with a pair of TR-60s opposite AVR-1's.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Have fun!</DIV>
