Don't remember if it was the same stack or not, but I seem to remember HS-100 replays run from Studio 4 control room during Cubs and White Sox road games.<br><br>Later at WSNS-44 we rented the WGN Snow Goose for White Sox home games in '78, '79 and '80. Ed Keker and I split time operating the HS-100 for replays, fed from the 1 aux bus available on the mighty CDL switcher.<br><br>WSNS had a leased HS-100 for replay use on Bulls and Black Hawks games. Al Knispal from the WMAQ Field Shop was contracted to maintain and be at 44 when it was in use. Per our NABET contract I was assigned as the in house Engineer to assist. Al let me do most of the work.<br><br>Remember we used distilled water to clean the discs. Also there were two schools of though re the heads before the auto head lifters came out. #1 ALWAYS lift the heads using a long greenie before shutdown and #2 NEVER use a greenie to lift or set the heads, just leave them alone.<br><br>Saw an HS-100C debut at the Chicago NAB, mid 70's? Came out just before the VPR's took over doing replays so don't know how many were sold. Would love to see a machine operate again. Got my little pieces of white tape all ready to go!<br><br><hr id="zwchr"><b>From: </b>quadlist-request@quadvideotapegroup.com<br><b>To: </b>quadlist@quadvideotapegroup.com<br><b>Sent: </b>Wednesday, November 7, 2012 12:16:31 PM<br><b>Subject: </b>QuadList Digest, Vol 53, Issue 24<br><br>Send QuadList mailing list submissions to<br> quadlist@quadvideotapegroup.com<br><br>To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit<br> http://mail.quadvideotapegroup.com/mailman/listinfo/quadlist_quadvideotapegroup.com<br><br>or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to<br> quadlist-request@quadvideotapegroup.com<br><br>You can reach the person managing the list at<br> quadlist-owner@quadvideotapegroup.com<br><br>When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific<br>than "Re: Contents of QuadList digest..."<br><br><br>This is the Digest of the QuadList.
