Note the proximity of VideoMax to VideoMagnetics on San Lazaro in  
Sunnyvale.

VideoMax is at 154... and Tony's operation, VideoMagnetics is across  
the street at 155.

Here's where they were...

If you zoom in and click on the white stripe in the street, you can  
use Street View to see what they look like today.

Tony Korte moved VideoMagnetics to Colorado Springs.  If you visit on  
the right evenings, you may be in for some live music in the recording  
studio he has next door.

VideoMax is now in Palo Alto, on Embarcadero Rd., a few doors from  
where Merlin Engineering Works was located. Ken Zin may have stories  
about Merlin to share sometime.

Side question: Can anyone tell what CMC Technology's "D.P.T. (Dynamic  
Parallel Tracking)" heads for Ampex machines differed from Ampex's AST  
(Automatic Scan Tracking) heads for 1" Type C?
