[QuadList] Sony's BVH-1100 mods (was AVR-1 Info-LEDs replace vacuum column lights)

Hi Dennis,

More great shots.  I didn't know Sony had made provisions for the remote mounting of the "Boxes", was good idea.  I was always nervous, I didn't feel right with all those cables hanging around and connectors, etc, but it turned out OK, only had couple problems with the cables.

I can't seem to place your face, although I do remember some of the techs in your fotos.

What are your dates at CBS and NBC??

73,

George Keller

The machines were not that easy to troubleshoot with the constant going from behind to front if they were in a set of racks. They got smarter with their later series of machines.

  NBC did this with their BVH-1000's, starting in 1978:

  The electronics chassis were moved from the back of each machine to in front and below it by installing extra-length cable harnesses.

  That's the console I wrote about a few months ago! I saw those machines at SCETV in 1979.
