[BC] Fun with Quad Videotape

[John Holt]

I thought Sarnoff wouldn't allow the Norelco.  It was General Electric cameras that NBC was allowed to buy.

That policy was not always observed or sometimes special procedures were
employed.  Remember how NBC used Norelco PC-70 cameras but they were never
shown in promotional material or acknowledged in any way.  When WCAU in
Philadelphia was first owned by CBS, a lot of terminal gear was painted
CBS gray so as to mask the original manufacturer which in some cases was RCA.
