That's  essentially the story!    
 



 
Along with feeding several other California stations, Terry Toller and I  
had been doing some State Capitol reporting for what was then Koplar  
Communications' KRBK-TV, 31, Sacramento's "Prime News."





Terry was on assignment for 31 and testing the camera on Dec. 2,  1984 
during the second _California  International Marathon_ 
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_International_Marathon) , which finishes at the State 
Capitol.






While riding my bike downtown, I happened by where he was shooting ,  and 
did a quick standup. (Note the biking gloves.)  Terry's girlfriend at  the 
time took the picture.  Don't remember her name.


Had I continued biking everywhere, you'd see someone who'd take up fewer  
bits in a digital archive or transmission!



Noting progress, today's imaging, editing and transmission methods would  
allow a reporter to use a bike as a vehicle in congested areas.  "BikePak?"



Ed, Did you acquire the TK-710 package that was listed last month on ebay  
out of Phoenix?

Catching up on drafts from several weeks  ago...



 
 






 
This is an RCA TK-710, vendored from Panasonic, if I recall my  history 
from 1984.



 
 






 
To confirm, I've been looking for a picture of the Panasonic  AK-710, which 
an RCA tube guide indicates used the same  tubes.




 


See red boxes around the cameras/tubes in this camera cross-reference  
chart from 1982:

I'll post the full four-page document to the website when I get that  
software running or replaced.


Meantime... the photo:

 
 
A freelancer in Sacramento was testing the TK-710 while deciding  whether 
to buy one.

It was shot during the 1984 California International Marathon at  the 
Capitol in Sacramento, CA.  Cameraman Terry Toller with the  TK-710 on the left 
and me (in thinner days) on the right doing a  standup is what you'd see if 
I'd have been able to scan  it.
