Paul, Where will you be located.  I spent 22 years with RCA (61-83)  and 
never came across a TK34.

DARN!  sorry to miss this...

I did  see  Paul Beck and crew last year though and enjoyed seeing the old  
gear  and actually meeting Paul in person at last.

Is  Paul's   crew also  going  this  year to  demo stuff?

Thought  you'd want to know that the ATSC 3.0 demonstration station is 
taking shape  on Black Mountain in Las Vegas.

One of the people helping to build  the station is QuadList member John 
Turner, head honcho at Turner  Engineering in New Jersey.

He advised the Old VTR's group this  morning:

"We are building a real time ATSC 3.0 transmission system on  ch 50 at 
Black Mountain for the convention. Pulling this RF off air at the  Grand Lobby 
and North Hall. Big demo will be a 65” LG OLED consumer receiver  being sold 
in Korea today.

Content is UHD stored on a Harmonic  (Omneon) 50TB, 2 RU server. The server 
is playing out digital video at 8X  1080I!
Sure interesting to compare this new system to the 1960’s analog  VTRs.

John (My 50th consecutive NAB this year)"

Turner  helped build the ATSC 3.0 station at NAB last year, and has 
participated in  a number of other NAB demonstration projects over the last several 
 decades.

He also enjoys restoring Quad and other vintage video tape  equipment in 
his company's New Jersey facility.

The "NextGen TV" demo  area is in the Grand Lobby  between North and 
Central  halls.

More about the ATSC 3.0 demo  here:
http://atsc.org/news-release/next-gen-tv-hub-showcase-benefits-new-broadcast
-tv-standard-2017-nab-show/#.WO-pPjxHaEc

"Tomorrow's  technology" is just a short walk away from where the Museum of 
Broadcast  Technology is bringing a showcase of vintage television gear to 
the entrance  of Northhall opposite the taxi drop off.

In the last several years,  the Museum's exhibit has showcased 2" quad 
video recorders along with a  number of portable television cameras from the mid 
to late 70s and early  80s.

MBT's Paul Beck advises this year's display is RCA:  "One  original TK-31 
with tubed power supply and one TK-34 with WP-16 and external  focus 
regulator. And... an original ZOOMAR 3x1 studio lens.

Yep  !  (Image) Orthicons are making a come back !!! You just wait and see  
!!!!"

Should be an interesting NAB, that's for  sure!

I'll have an announcement about the "Annual Quad Videotape  Group Luncheon 
at NAB" in a forthcoming separate email.

As always it  will be on 12:30 PM, Tuesday, April 25, 2017. The location is 
being  identified. It will likely be near the MBT exhibit.

Looking forward  to seeing folks there. Unless something changes 
dramatically in the next two  weeks, we will be walking the floor rather than standing 
in a  booth.
