[BC] Early TV Audio Boards

Back in the early 70's, I worked for an AM/FM combo that used to run a UHF
station on Channel 25.  They used a Townsend transmitter.  One of the
leftovers from the TV operation was a DuMont audio board.  It was modular in
construction with each channel using a separate 4x10 inch chassis that was
integrated into the wiring harness.  Unfortunately, the modular chassis were
easily rewired for other uses.  

I wish I had saved the board, or at least taken pictures.

Dave, remember that in those capital rich stations that went RCA the real 
Board of choice was the BC-76 B or C and especially with the Talkback and
extra input console (OP-7A). The BC-2B often became a runner up in smaller
stations or in production rooms. In addition there was a line of mechanical
audio follow video switchers (TS-10 and TS-20A;TS-30B for remote switching,
units) made by RCA for WENR, WOR, WWJ and many other stations.

I have pictures of all this equipment.  Barry may or may not need them.
