[QuadList] FR-600s and Mincom 22's were used for Apollo datarecording

[Don Norwood]

The link that was posted to the Honeysuckle info site ( http://www.honeysucklecreek.net/station/video.html ) also indicated that a VR-1100 was used.  The site says that 660's were used instead of the 1100 after Apollo 14.  But a color pic on that site which includes the VR-660's and the VR-1100 clearly shows that the 1100 was in record mode at that time, and the caption claims that it was during Apollo 17.

  For the Apollo recordings, Goldstone tracking used an FR-600 while Honeysuckle and Parkes in Australia had Mincom 22's.
