If you look at the lower third timecode on the broadcast feed, the studio audio meter doesn't drop to zero -- the 14.2 Hz sub-tone stays active. The band keeps playing the backing chords for almost 3 minutes while she doesn't move a single muscle. My tape is 3rd generation and starting to degrade. Does anyone have a 1st gen copy from a Betamax or U-matic deck? -- === Bill Tanaka === Dept of Electrical Engineering, UUNET Technologies, Falls Church VA "5 sigma is a discovery. 7 is a question."
