I was surprised to see Transportation Shock being run on a fully boxed TV. I hadn't realized that any commercial manufacturers had ever done that; I thought it was a strictly military idea.
Also, I didn't see anyone smoking. Prior to about 1980, everyone smoked everywhere (or so it seemed to a non-smoker).

Having worked at Tektronix in the business since about that time as depicted in the video it all looked like what we did day by day to get a quality product out. I am pleased to see the use of Tek scopes prominently displayed since I developed CRT displays for a number of products during that time - before I got involved in the safety & regulatory activities. Ted is correct, much of the testing has been automated but, in my opinioin, is more rigorous today; component testing has also been pushed back on the supplier. All of this improves the reliability of the equipment. Thanx for this blast from the past. :>) br, Pete Peter E Perkins, PE Principal Product Safety Engineer PO Box 23427 Tigard, ORe 97281-3427 503/452-1201 fone/fax <mailto:p.perk...@ieee.org> p.perk...@ieee.org - ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
