Someone uploaded a rather poor transfer of this film on YouTube. It is in three parts. In part 3 at 3:20, you will see a segment where a newsman is viewing 2" quad material in a crowded tape room consisting of RCA and Ampex VTR's.</div><div><br></div><div>Click the following:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7m58pYLWNyA">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7m58pYLWNyA</a></div><div><br></div><div>Now compare that tape room to the picture of the newer version taken approx. 1973 in the new facility.</div><div><br></div><div>I hope this clarify's the original post. By the way, I remember Larry Rasco as he was pretty much the voice of Big 2 News in the 60's and 70's.</div><div><br></div><div><div>
