RCA cameras and VTRbs in 1975 or 76. However, the TK-47 was not
introduced until 1978, and I recall an older TK-44 being used as a fixed wide
shot in the b Barnb Auditorium which was attached to the same control room
as the main PTL studio. So that camera as well as the other TK-44s might
have been a part of the original purchase in 1975 that they are referring
to. He gave me the name of someone to ask, so Ibll keep you posted.
I still think the TK-47s were acquired in the early 80bs.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>This is almost certainly a staged
shot. They noted that the cameras are not pointed at Bakker, nor is he in
the camera monitors. They said that there might be several such staged
shots per day for things happening around PTL. One lady thought that he
was holding a b Heritage Heraldb which was the daily paper I was referring
to. Another person felt certain that this shot was taken for the cover of
Broadcast Magazine, (or perhaps the occasion of having made the cover of that
magazine) and that he was holding a copy of that magazine. But it doesnbt
look like there is a picture on whatever he is holding. So I think it
might be the Heritage Herald or some similar paper.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

cameramen: Ricardo Valle is on Cam3 and Rick Auten is on the boom.
They arenbt sure who took the picture, as there were four photographers on
staff at the time. However, Phil Eggert was the chief photographer at the
time.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<st1:State u1_x003a_st="on" w:st="on">SC</st1:State></st1:place> to be closer
to her. There I worked for WPDE-TV15, maintaining their Umatic and Beta
SP decks. In 1995, I transitioned into my present position at <st1:PlaceName

maintain an RCA TR-600 at a sister studio here in town. I am enjoying
this b blast from the pastb in my career, and look forward to doing more
work on the 2b format. While I am sure there are younger engineers than I
who work on 2b, I figure that I must be one of the youngest (at age 50) who
operated 2b; since I did so at the beginning of my career.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
