For younger folks on Usenet: remember what it was like when the Public Harmony Acts were in full effect?

Everyone on our dorm floor huddled around a 25-inch Radiant Television console with the blinds drawn.
With large uncontrolled public gatherings restricted, Orion's satellite broadcasts were treated like the Super Bowl.

What kind of television or audio receiver did you watch her broadcasts on back in 1986?

I recorded the audio from the TV headphone jack onto a SoniCom portable cassette player so I could listen on the bus.

A physical body that could be touched never existed. The broadcast was a real-time holographic synthesis fed from the Burbank basement.

Unsubscribe me from this list! (Wait, this is Usenet, never mind).
