>>> Coincidentally, I came across a cue box on a live1961 Dinah Shore show (studio 4 Burbank) I was transferring today. This was not her normal Chevy show as S&H Green Stamps was the sponsor on this episode. The live Chevy sponsored shows don't have the cue box (commercials were either live out of studio 2 adjacent to studio 4 or from a color film chain in telecine). But this particular show did. So why this show had the box is unknown unless there were some regional inserts expected over the net feed. This is the earliest cue box I've ever come across on 2" Quad videotapes from NBC.
