Six one-inch machines are kept in repair for type “C” playback and there are numerous U-matic 3/4-inch machines, as well as models for most any other format that was used for recording news content.<br><br>“Whenever the network decides to get rid of a tape machine, we've had first dibs,” said (CBS news archives manager Roy )Carubia.</span></div> <div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; FONT-SIZE: 12px"><br>A Rank Cintel machine is used for film transfers, and the operation keeps some Movieola flatbed editing machines in shape for screenings and preparation and repair of film.
