[QuadList] Tape Delay Systems

[Chuck Reti]

I remember in late 60's the senior engineers at Wayne State Univ TV having to devise a delay system for some reason. Available were two TRT-1's. The difficult part was that they were arranged in the VTR room at a 90 degree angle, with a walkway space between them. They came up with a most interesting tape path, using some homebrew guides at appropriate angles, which, after some trial and some damaged tape, eventually worked reasonably well. No photos, unfortunately.
