<div>It's December 7, 2011, 70 years after the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and brought the United States into World War II.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My dad, Joe Langdell was there... and survived the explosion aboard the USS Arizona because he could work a slide rule to do trigonometry, and so was chosen for temporary duty ashore with the Fleet Camera Party.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>He's there today... as perhaps the only Arizona officer still alive... </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>undoubtedly recorded this week on some form of videotape, being used even in today's shift to digital files stored on optical disc and memory cards.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The ranking USS Arizona officer to survive the attack was Lt. Commander Samuel Fuqua. Ampex VR-1000 Quad recorders were used by Ralph Edwards Productions on location at the USS Arizona to record a "This is Your Life" episode that aired on Feb. 3, 1958... </div>

<div>a very short time from when videotape was first used on the air.</div>

</div>
<div><B>Videotape Beginnings:</B></div>
<div>While on the road from Denver back to home base last Friday, I managed to forget to observe the start of Videotape's use in broadcast television. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>55 years ago last week, CBS made broadcast (and videotape) history when it replayed the Nov. 30, 1956 evening news broadcast with Douglas Edwards from an Ampex Quad VTR at CBS Television City in Hollywood.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>After recording the live feed coming down the network line from New York at 4 p.m. Pacific time, the program was played back three hours later and fed to the dozen West Coast CBS affiliates.</div>

<div>Here's the prototype VTR called "Mark IV" that started the revolution on April 14, 1956 at the NARTB show in Chicago, when a group of CBS television affiliates saw remarks by CBS's Bill Lodge miraculously repeat themselves on three television monitors.</div>

<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span>The photo accompanied a May, 1981 Broadcast Engineering article by Ampex's Charles P. Ginsburg on the 25th anniversary of Videotape™ recording. Ginsburg recounted the lengthy story behind the development of the Quadruplex VTR, and how it ended up causing gasps of surprise at the 1956 unveiling in Chicago.</SPAN></div>

<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span><B>First Instant Replay:</B></SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span>An Ampex VR-1000 helped make broadcast history on Dec. 7, 1963.</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span><br>
</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span>CBS Director Tony Verna had been pushing the sports television envelope in an effort to bring more of the game to viewers. He was hired by then-CBS executive Tex Schramm, before Schramm became the first president and general manager of the Dallas Cowboys.</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span><br>
</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span>Verna had worked with tape during the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome, Italy. CBS aired the Games via tape delay... recording the tapes in Rome, and flying them to New York for playback.</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span><br>
</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span>In his book "Instant Replay" Verna recalls working around the bureaucracy at CBS to let him take one of the 14 Ampex VR-1000s from the tape room at Grand Central Terminal and haul it to the era's college football showcase, the Army-Navy Game in relatively nearby Philadelphia.</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span><br>
</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span>He recounted the story for Bill Bode on Page 3 of the PDF here:</SPAN></div>

</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span>Millions would be watching the game... delayed more than two weeks by the assassination of President Kennedy. The game pitted Navy's Roger Staubach against Army Quarterback Rollie Stichweh.</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span><br>
</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span>Its not clear from Verna's book or other re-tellings which model of VR-1000 was used, but given that the VR-1000's in Grand Central were put into service in 1958, that meant pulling the transport and two racks of electronics out of the building and into a truck.</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span><br>
</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span>On location, Verna planned to use the cue track to overcome two problems: Finding the right place to start playback, and overcome the long, often ten second lock-up time machines required before showing a clean picture.</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span><br>
</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span>He told audio man Dick Livingston to record one beep on the cue track as a team broke a huddle, and a pair of beeps when the ball was snapped.</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span><br>
</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span>The timing <I>process</I> worked in run-throughs... but the VR-1000 didn't always lock up in time to be put on the line.</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span><br>
</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span>That was partly due to the piece of tape being used: A spliced five minute hunk of what Verna recalls was Scotch 179. It had previously been used to record a Lucy Show and still had content on it that would appear when least expected.</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span><br>
</SPAN></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE: 14px"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=Apple-style-span>It finally worked. CBS's George Drago was on the isolated camera patched into the VR-1000 John Wells was operating.</SPAN></div>
