<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000080>Hi Park,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000080></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000080>A shoot-off is in order between the
AVR-1 and the 2K machines to prove that point. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000080></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000080>However the AVR-1 does it, it does
it well - the incredible <STRONG>lack of color banding of any kind</STRONG>
(amplitude or color phase) is one of its outstanding virtues.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000080></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000080>During the Astaire restoration I
simultaneously fed embryonic video from the AVR-1 through the NEC TBC **, and
through the normal path of post- video and TBC processing in the AVR-1.
The final AVR-1 output was superior in color fidelity and stability (in my
humble opinion)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000080>The one thing the AVR-1 does not have is a
facility for playing heterodyne dub tapes</FONT></DIV>

- thanks Ken <STRONG>!</STRONG></FONT></DIV>

<DIV>According to the reel hold-down hubs, that 2k has been "Merlinized". If
it has the 10 bit NEC TBC, I'd suggest it is making pictures as good as any
AVR-1.<BR>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000080></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000080>About a year ago, James O'Neal of
Television Technology contacted me. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000080>He wanted to know if I knew of an Ampex

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000080>He was suggesting to them that
they should have an AVR- 1 in their restoration stable. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000080>I am truly surprised that the LOC is
using 2000's instead of the much better performing AVR-1.</FONT></DIV>
