Our AVR-1 and AVR-3's all had color monitors...   Tek...
 
The AVR switchable scope was usually set on  vector

I've got  a good accurate color bar waveform image to send Don, but I'd 
like input from  the group as to what the other scope should display.  I recall 
seeing the  RF level waveform most frequently left selected in most 
facilities.  Does  anybody have a good waveform image of that they'd like to send 
me?  
The monitor, of course was monochrome.  Some facilities kept the  display 
with H and V delay so they saw the H and V syncs displayed, most  usually 
just had it on line out.  Again, suggestions (or images) welcome.  


Don said the exercise was to model a complex object with the minimum  
number of polygons, which is why circles are hexagons (capstan, knobs, etc)  That 
could be increased for accuracy, but making them have enough points  to 
look perfectly round would probably increase the number of polygons needed  to 
render the whole machine by an order of magnitude.


I think it would be interesting if we helped Don get this model to be  
accurate - you never know there may end up being an AVR-1 in the next big  
videogame or feature film!


Any images you might have or could easily make of what you'd like to see  
displayed, as well as appearance details that were incorrect on his model  
would be greatly appreciated.


Obviously, Don has other things to do, but the scope and monitor maps  
would be easily fixed.
The rest as his time permits.
Thanks!
