[QuadList] Jeeopardy Question

[Ted Langdell]

Good question, Chris!

Can you scan the catalog page and post?

The TR-22HL was shown at the 1965 NAB in Washington, DC.

It was priced at $72,000 and had modules for both High and Low Band  
according to Abramson's "History of Television, 1942 to 2000."

The more flexible TR-70 debuted at $82,500.

Also introduced, the Visual/Allen V/A 100G for $100,000, poised as a  
mastering machine and for multiple generation copies.

I've seen references to RCA-badged IVC machines.  IVC OEM'd for Bell  
and Howell—owned one now in Pennsylvania.  I seem to think they also  
did so for GE, but could be mistaken.
