<div>It's the 50th Anniversary of the VR-2000 introduction at NAB,
which also ushered in the era of High Band (aka High-Band,
Highband) recording, which made significant improvements to
picture quality.</div>

<div>
<div>
<div>It would be another seven years before Ampex introduced
another ground-breaking VTR, the AVR-1.</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>By the time that occurred, the VR-2000 and it's updated
versions are said to have been the Ampex's most profitable
product, according to a report about a 1971 award to Colortec
inventor Charles Coleman, mentioned here:</div>

<div>I'd love to write something about Ampex introducing a new
product at NAB this year. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Sorry I missed the opportunity three days ago to tell
about the new VR-2014 which uses Ultra High Band via the
Bong modulation process designed by the company's well
regarded scientist Wha chubin Zmowking.</div>
