<DIV>I also worked at the U of M and it was interesting to see pictures from
these cameras. A lot of light was needed. 1000 foot candles at f
8. They were TK-45 not 44. I got a copy of the instruction
book from Chuck Pharis last year. It turned out that it was the book from
the U of M.</DIV>

by my experience they are a missing one camera type, that is the original
TK 44 a three Vidicoin color camera designed for use in operating
rooms, 10 were produced for medical use. to my knowledge only 3 were sold
the rest were given away. I know it well as I worked with it at the Army
Medical Center in 1956-7 and at the University of Michigan in
1958-62. Later while at RCA I sold the TK-44A (<SPAN

you'd want to know that the ATSC 3.0 demonstration station is taking
shape on Black Mountain in Las Vegas.<BR><BR>One of the people helping
to build the station is QuadList member John Turner, head honcho at
Turner Engineering in New Jersey.<BR><BR>He advised the Old VTR's group
this morning:<BR><BR>"We are building a real time ATSC 3.0 transmission
system on ch 50 at Black Mountain for the convention. Pulling this RF
off air at the Grand Lobby and North Hall. Big demo will be a 65” LG
OLED consumer receiver being sold in Korea today.<BR><BR>Content is UHD
stored on a Harmonic (Omneon) 50TB, 2 RU server. The server is playing
out digital video at 8X 1080I!<BR>Sure interesting to compare this new
system to the 1960’s analog VTRs.<BR><BR>John (My 50th consecutive NAB
this year)"<BR><BR><BR>Turner helped build the ATSC 3.0 station at NAB
last year, and has participated in a number of other NAB demonstration
projects over the last several decades.<BR><BR>He also enjoys restoring
Quad and other vintage video tape equipment in his company's New Jersey
facility.<BR><BR>The "NextGen TV" demo area is in the Grand Lobby
between North and Central halls.<BR><BR><BR>More about the ATSC 3.0 demo
here:<BR>http://atsc.org/news-release/next-gen-tv-hub-showcase-benefits-new-broadcast-tv-standard-2017-nab-show/#.WO-pPjxHaEc<BR><BR>"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.<BR><BR>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.<BR><BR>MBT's Paul Beck advises this
year's display is RCA: "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.<BR><BR>Yep ! (Image) Orthicons
are making a come back !!! You just wait and see
!!!!"<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>Should be an interesting NAB, that's for
sure!<BR><BR>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.<BR><BR>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.<BR><BR>Ted<BR><BR>Ted Langdell<BR>Secretary, Quad Videotape
