Unfortunately, the text below the clip has misinformation about the  
work needed to recover the video from the Quad tapes.

One poster totally ignores the Emmy winning technical work done by Ed  
Reitan and Don Kent.  It wasn't "rack the tape and hit play... oh,  
wow, look at that color!"

This clip is lifted from LA area video editor Kris Trexler's website  
at http://www.ev1.pair.com/colorTV/NBCcolortape.html

Kris has a story to tell about the Edsel show from a link on the same  
page (and a clip), and there's the backstory about the CBS Jurassic  
Park restoration to be told on Quadvideotapegroup.com, as soon as I  
can type it up and post to QVTG.

RE: NAB Display:

I think David's idea about recreating the Kitchen Debate at NAB 2009  
with look alikes, his VR-1000 and (if possible) Chuck's restored  
TK-41 would be a great thing, and I'll help however I can.

Ted.
