used for a pool feed of Diana's coffin travelling thru north London.
Were the links from cameras to the dish done by radio (eg microwave)
or by coax cable?
Belden cable - 1 co-ax and 2 audio pairs.
I lived in Bracknell at the time and had access to CNN and another US
station through the cable-TV feed to all houses. It was interesting
to see the CNN was using a mixture of BBC and ITN feeds, which they standards-converted from 625/25 to 525/30 for use in the USA. But
this was then converted back to 625/25 for broadcast on the European
version of CNN. The results, especially when the car went past a
stationary camera or the camera panned, were not pretty :-) It was
the frame-rate conversion that suffered.
