[QuadList] Introductions

[Joe Owens]

  I missed the 600 series by that much.  [indicate small space]
I toured KNBC Burbank where there were a lot of them, and saw a bunch  
when I interviewed for Tech Alert out of Camden, NJ, but never got to  
operate them, and of course the Broadcast Division was terminated  
shortly thereafter.  Good thing I didn't get that particular job!   
Seems to me a lot of guys went straight over to SONAM from Camden.
While in Jersey, I also saw an early version of an RCA Type C  
helical, I think it was going to be called the 800?  Died in gestation.
