<div>There are still services available to transfer old film in NJ. I believe Ascent Media, aka the old Audio plus Video, still has some Ranks running archive. As far as I know the nets do not have telecine setups running anywhere.</div>

<br> I reply:<br><br> I can't answer definitively as I wasn't working for NBC at the time. I know there were a bunch of TK-27s and TK-28s at 30 Rock when I first worked for NBC in 1978. Those TK-27's and -28's may have been used to mass-transfer material from news film to tape back in the '80's when the migration from film to tape would have most likely taken place. It could have been done about the time of the MII machines since a lot of that material is on MII, even now. But I see the telltale tape wrap of Beta SP (as tapes were loaded into the machines) on the microwave feed from the New Jersey Archive all the time, so I'm guessing that most if not all of it is now on Beta SP.<br>
