  • Digital Preservation: Tape begins on bars before leading into program. Luma and chroma are of decent quality, with luma appearing to feature light flickering despite setup/corrections. Highlights appear blown out in spots despite heavy corrections due to in-tape setup. Audio is on channels 1 and 2 and are of decent quality. Ends on black
