<DIV>Thought you'd want to know that the ATSC 3.0 demonstration station is

<DIV><BR> One of the people helping to build the station is QuadList
member John Turner, head honcho at Turner Engineering in New Jersey.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>He advised the Old VTR's group this morning:</DIV>

<DIV>"Tomorrow's technology" is just a short walk away from where the
Museum of Broadcast Technology is bringing a showcase of vintage television
gear to the entrance of Northhall opposite the taxi drop off. </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>In the last several years, the Museum's exhibit has showcased 2" quad
video recorders along with a number of portable television cameras from the
mid to late 70s and early 80s.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>MBT's Paul Beck advises this year's display is RCA: "<SPAN>One
original TK-31 with tubed power supply and one TK-34 with WP-16 and external
focus regulator. And... an original ZOOMAR 3x1 studio
lens. </SPAN></DIV><SPAN><BR>Yep ! (Image) Orthicons are making a

<DIV>Should be an interesting NAB, that's for sure!</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I'll have an announcement about the "Annual Quad Videotape Group Luncheon
at NAB" in a forthcoming separate email.<BR><BR>As always it will be on 12:30
PM, Tuesday, April 25, 2017. The location is being identified. It will
likely be near the MBT exhibit.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Looking forward to seeing folks there. Unless something changes
dramatically in the next two weeks, we will be walking the floor rather than
standing in a booth.</DIV>
