[QuadList] KRON Delay

[Pat McGowan]

Hmmmmm, SVHS for second backup. Probably the same crappy Panasonic decks that WGN used for sports hilights during much of the 90's. Remember VTR Maint Engineer par excellance Jeff Glauberg saying "look at this, they expect me to fix this piece of sxxx?"

> In the '80s, my station, KRON-TV in San Francisco, also participated in the primetime shift.  From a practical point of view it presented some issues.  We recorded the primary copy on 1" using 2x90minute reels,our first backup was 3 hour-long betas, and the alternate backup was an automated system using SVHS that automatically recorded and played back programming. If the evening was "normal," playback was fairly straightforward.  Things got complicated if there was some variation between east and west coast programming, or network news broke in to east coast programming.  Then, we'd need to record & turn around the mountain feed.
