VPR2B
Welcome! I spent 40 years working in broadcast television, and over that time I started saving things that I thought were cool, with either great production or historic value. The name of my channel -- VPR2B -- is the model number for an Ampex 1-inch Type C videotape recorder that was very popular in the late 1970s to early 1980s. At the time, 1-inch Type C was the state-of-the-art video technology, superseding 2-inch quadruplex tape which had been the defacto standard for broadcast and production since it was introduced in the 1950s.
I archived material on 1-inch Type C whenever possible, though many of my recordings were made at home on Betamax, VHS, or S-VHS. I present the clips here for historical value only, and hope you find some that bring back memories.
