The presentations look quite interesting, and are by some folks you  likely 
know from these lists:


   Granville Klink’s Wonderful Collection of  Broadcasting Memorabilia and 
His Involvement in Early  Television James O'Neal  Intermediate Vintage 
Television Restoration  Techniques Lee Barmakian  60th Anniversary of RCA/NBC's 
Famous Walkie-Lookie or  Peepy-Creepy Backpack Camera/Transmitter Gary Davis 
 Bypassing the RF/IF Sections in Antique TV Sets Wayne Abare  AT&T 
Picturephone Service of the 1970s Richard Diehl




I hope the presentations are being streamed again this year. I enjoyed  
being able to watch last year. 


It'd be good to see Richard Diehl via Long Distance... by the internet  
version of Picturephone.


And source tells me that there's something special in James O'Neal's  
presentation about "Granny" Klink, the former CE of WTOP, Washington, D. C.  It 
might color your thinking about early TV.


Perhaps someone can post some video of and from Chuck Pharis's working  
TK-11/31 camera chain that's on display along with these fine examples of TV  
history:



    Varian 925-40 helium leak dector (finds leaks in 15G and 21AX tubes)  - 
Bob Galanter  _Silvertone  126-214_ 
(http://www.earlytelevision.org/silvertone.html)  (TT-5) - Darryl Hock  _Philco 1942  table model_ 
(http://www.earlytelevision.org/philco_7in_prewar.html)  - Chuck Azzalina  East German SECAM 
set (Color 20) - Ingo Kubbe  _AT&T  Picturephone_ 
(http://www.earlytelevision.org/picturephone.html)  and _Sony  CV-2000_ 
(http://www.earlytelevision.org/sony_cv2000.html)  engineering prototype home video tape recorder -  
Richard Deihl  Lighted Signs - Mike Molnar  Color Drum Receiver - Cliff Benham  
Working TK11/31 Camera Chain - Chuck  Pharis





Sunday, attendees will be treated to a restoration workshop, and  
demonstrations of how to rebuild CRT's by one of the last picture tube  rebuilders in 
the country.


Sounds like a lot of fun in Ohio.
