		I contradict:

	I'm sorry but that's not true.  I worked at R/T and they never had 
Marconi color cameras.  R/T had RCA cameras at the Sesame Street studio 
on 81st Street in New York.  When I worked there, they were using 
TK-44b's which were installed new in 1970.
	I've been told by other R/T techs at the time that Sesame Street's 
first season (1969) was shot at WNEW-TV.  Perhaps this was where the 
Marconi cameras were located.
