IIRC, "Play Misty For Me", the the audio was the actual signal from the
board when appropriate.
OTOH, WKRP - I don't think I ever SAW the VU meters on the board...
And in a related continuity booboo, did anyone else ever catch the error
in cart handling?
Les, Johnny, or whoever inserts cart and gets instant start - no button
pressing! Just like an 8-track... I'm not sure but what those WERE
8-tracks, now that I think about it...
