what do you it was  shot with??
 
 
don't see the "corners" of the image orthicon in any of  the shots, nor any 
changes in sensitivity near the edges of the picture.   Which leads me to 
conclude that the video was  probably cropped.
 
I've used I/Os with over 600 lines of resolution.  These  pictures are 
softer than that.
 
That said, how nice to see the video!

No issues with the video quality, considering what a massive upgrade  this 
is from the kinescope copies that have been in circulation in the  
collector's circuit since the 80s.  The kines were missing most of  "Twist & Shout" 
and "Long Tall Sally" entirely.

Indeed David! I enjoed it!   thanks   for the details!...    It is great 
just to  have this! Thanks!  
 
Ed, 

I  don't know who's truck it was. I have an email into Ron to find out if 
he  knows. Also, I would presume that the VTR was in the truck, and not  
microwaved back to some record VTR in a station (as in WRC doing the  pickup and 
feeding it back to their station). The video is not that sharp  if I recall 
correctly, meaning it did not look like the higher quality TK  60's or 
Marconi's. But, if you are in any way a Beatles fan and can  toleratse the audio 
problems, then you should be OK with the video quality  as well, in my  
opinion. 

David
