GE Camera/Broadcast gear

[NewVista]

At the Early Television Museum gathering this year they had an outside trailer with free old broadcast and General Electric gear. In picture you see (top right) an all-tube GE color-black generator of about 24" rack space.

There were also a bunch of GE Image orthicon deflection yokes which I snagged. These would be difficult to manufacture but although GE products were seldom seen, their motto seemed to be "Anything RCA can make, we can make".

Inside were other GE items like a 1950s camera control unit (pictured) and an early 15" color monitor of very different design to RCA's industry standard.
