Bob,

While at NBC Burbank, they had "the bird" on 35 MM positive print. Telecine 
on the third floor had TK 26's I believe back in the early color days, moving 
on to TK 27's (not sure if they ever had them). When I started there in 1979, 
they had 28's and maybe a 29. I have one animated peacock on 35 mm stock, 
slightly faded. Others I transferred on 2" (HBC) have, at times, looked terrific. 

Regarding film chains of the past: At KLTV, we had one lone TK 27. At KERA, 
one PE 240 and one PE 245. At KCOP, a TK 26, TK 27, TK 28, and a Cohu. Guess 
which of the last four looked the best?

David
