[QuadList] Super High Band

[bill.spencer at northstarstudios.tv]

Hello all!  I'm new to the list and I've searched most of the archives.
Finding nothing on SHB I thought I would ask if anyone has a demod board
for my AVR-2 to loan or a working machine that could transfer 17 hours
of material?

 

I also have 2 MK-X refurbs to trade, either for the work or a good MK-XV
head.

 

Ted said to tell a little something about myself so I'll try to keep it
short!  I've been in the TV business since about 1960 and actually found
out they would pay you for doing it in 1967!  Cut my teeth on a VR-1000
at WKNO in Memphis.  It was provided by NET to play their bicycled
tapes.  I remember playing the first mono tapes of Mr. Rogers back then.
We also had a VR-1100 and 1200.  Moved on to TR-4, 5, 22 at KLVX in Las
Vegas, then to PBS in Washington where we had AVR-1.  To CBN in VA Beach
where we had a TR-70 and TR-600 mix.  When I got here to Nashville at
WDCN they were still using a mix of TR-61 and TR-600.  At my present
location at NorthStar Studios I keep up an AVR-2 and a TR-600 doing quad
transfers as one of my side functions!  I think I'm the only active
engineer in Nashville that still does quad work.  I sold my VR-2000s a
few years back.

 

I also do video and have to go get ready for a two hour live show this
evening, so I'm looking forward to sharing quad stories and being a part
of this forum.

 

BTW, I turned down the 15,000 hour job a couple of years ago!  I did a
few sample transfers for the guy who was shopping it at the time and
informed him that the rights issue would be the hardest part of what
they wanted to do.  Since then I think the lot has passed through two
other hands.  I'm a purist who thinks every frame of film or video is a
precious moment in time that someone somewhere would be interested in
seeing if it was made available, so I hate to think of it all going to
the landfill!
