For those in the Mountain and Pacific time zones who have access to the 
"MeTV" network, today's episode of "Streets of San Francisco" has a 
brief scene in the videotape room of KGO-TV, at its old Golden Gate 
Avenue location. A number of quad machines are visible; the principals 
are watching a tape on one particular machine. Amazingly, the old Ampex 
machine (couldn't tell if it was an 1100, 1200 or 2000) that they were 
looking at produced a beautiful, full-color still frame on the sidecar 
monitor, while every other monitor visible had flickering monochrome 
output... :)

The show airs at 4pm MT and PT; the scene referenced is in the last act, 
sometime after 4:45.
