color:#1F497D'>Yes definitely OT. Because I spent so much time on this,
it was of interest. We did have that stock wipe control panel you have in
the picture, Don, but we never used it so it was available for testing.
We built our own panel completely, shown here (again forgive the photos as
these were early 70s). My still long time friend Ron Beideck in the photo.
The panel to the right of the mix panel had the cuts only portion and was
used for on air. Read below for the next picture.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

color:#1F497D'>When I started at KOLN I knew nothing (and the older I got, the
more I realized how little I knew). Our Quads (3 1200s) were run in
Horizontal lock because the servos were not in top shape. They didn’t
feed the timed inputs to the switcher. So a typical station break would
have one or two taped spots and a live slide/announce. Since the VTRs
were not vertically locked, we figured everyone at home saw a vertical roll
switch for every spot (Net/VTR/VTR/Slide/Net). While I didn’t know
much, I made it my task to learn how to make this work better and with the help
of the Engineers there, we finally made all machines work in “Automatic”
lock all the time. It made our station breaks look much better.
After hours we would gunlock to the network so our breaks would be even
smoother, but that was always a risk. We loved it though.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

including one of the three quads.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

can see the switcher rack (third from the left of the quad) similar to the
one in my earlier photo, but this one had the tube EMI electronics for mix/effects
(as they were) and keys. You will also love the Tek lab scope where I
learned how to use delayed sweep.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
