Apparently he did have some help from some NBTVers but yeah, he did seem to have to waste a lot of time coming up to speed on things.
I didn't want to comment much till i have watched it all but he seemed to know nothing sure smart enough to make it once he looked it up but it seemed to me what i have watched so far it could of went a lot quicker if they didn't take the idea that its a lost art ...
It looked like he did a fairly good job in then end but I would like to get hold of some of the signal though to check it out.
OK i look forward to seeing what happens i took DrZ's advice and downloaded it before its taken off perhaps /
It was a very short time frame that he had to be fair, but then again he had access to resources most of us NBTVers don't, so I think it's fair to say they cancel each other out somewhat.
Perhaps it should of been left to the Nbters from the start than a tv star scientist...money for the club perhaps !
It was a reasonable video, and I did get caught up in the "it'll be right on the night" excitement.
I have been enjoying what i seen and will watch the rest tonight there is very little on mechanical television and this is a joy to see i am happy some one put it on you tube .
Alas, it did perpetrate a lot of the unwarranted negative connotations of Baird's system in comparison to the clunky, and short lived, CRT system. /s
Which is very wrong those tiny vibrating mirrors on those projection devices so Mechanical television out lived the crt not to say one is better than the other apart from how much time your willing to advance its development and in this case mechanical television has won !
Edit....i finished watching the program Glad it sort of focused more on the mechanical side ,i see they all enjoyed doing the program ...
