<DIV>The mystery photo of the week was taken exactly 30 years ago (+/- a few
days). At NAB Vegas 1982, Ken Zin proudly displayed a rebuilt, mint condition
VR-1000 VTR at the Merlin booth. Ken had assembled this machine from VR-1000
A, B, and C machines. It was running and fully operational on the show room
floor. It is my understanding that after NAB, this machine was loaded onto a
truck for a trip to The Smithsonian but it was subjected to severe damage
while in transit. It's whereabouts are unknown. </DIV><BR>
