Episode Synopsis "TWiRT 748 - Cart Machines: The Rest of the Story with Andy Rector"

The Story of the Broadcast Cart Machine is fascinating, especially to those of us who used them on-air, or installed and repaired them as engineers.  Andy Rector, who was heavily involved in the business of broadcast cart machines, joins us for Part 2 of our exploration into this history.  We’ll go through the 1970s and 1980s, as new broadcast cart machines were developed and deployed. We’ll follow this story arc right up to the late 1990s, when Andy says was really the end of that cart machine era.   Show Notes:An Afternoon with John “Jack” Mullin - A video by the Audio Engineering Society Guest:Andy Rector - Broadcast Equipment HistorianHost:Kirk Harnack, The Telos Alliance, Delta Radio, Star94.3, South Seas, & Akamai BroadcastingFollow TWiRT on Twitter and on Facebook - and see all the videos on YouTube.TWiRT is brought to you by:Broadcasters General Store, with outstanding service, saving, and support.
