They had delivered products with the 75Bit code before Stan Busby of Ampex, wrote a document to SMPTE, that the code should be 80Bits from the start for some very good future reasons.<br>The SMPTE sub group understood, the standard became 80Bits and ECCO took back all the delivered product and changed it to 80Bits.<br><br>Ampex worked with ECCO and I have spent a lot of time with George Swetland over the years.<br><br>Bill Carpenter<br><br><br><br>--- On <b>Thu, 3/10/11, Chill315@aol.com <i><Chill315@aol.com></i></b> wrote:<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"><br>From: Chill315@aol.com <Chill315@aol.com><br>Subject: Re: [QuadList] Question of the week-RCA AE 6000 editor<br>To:

<div>The ECCO folks were very involved with SMPTE time code. George
Swetland of ECCO was on the standards committee at SMPTE for time code.
They did a lot of OEM business with other folks. </div>

<div>RCA TR 70B with Recortec tape timer. RCA programmers on the lower right.
I edited many a game show on this machine using the RCA/EECO system! Lot's of
nixie tubes for readouts. They liked to have a number in each register of
record entry or else...Meaning, black tapes were all hour ten time code, not
hour one. All studio recordings were time of day, 24 hour clock, drop frame
(of course).</div>
