[QuadList] 1" Machine glue

[Bill Carpenter]

I think it's just progress, I was designing helical machines, before they were a broadcast product, except in France on Secam, and the Phillipiness, and I did on-air (non-phased) color tests, in Mexico City, 2 weeks before the Olympic's in 1968. 

In the early 70's, I was the product manager, for all the Quad's except the AVR-1 and ACR-25, and introduced the AVR-2. By 1980, I had the VPR-20, the portable 1" machine and in 83, I introduced the best helical scan machine ever built, the VPR-3, so it's just progress, and making everything better!

I must be lucky. Transferred two Quad reels this weekend with the 3M foam and the tape was fine. No glue on the tape.


Best,
