Gents:

     Also on this same web site http://www.labguysworld.com/Motorola_EVR.htm 
is another FSS device, this one made commercially by ^^ back in the '60s. 
It played prerecorded video film via a FSS device.  I have one and had 
planned to use it as a video ID source on ATV back in the early 80s.  I was 
able to insert a 35mm color slide photograph between the CRT and PMT and 
display it on a video monitor in B&W.

     Alas, time has flown and I never did use it as I had intended.  I 
managed to get on ATV for a while locally via the WA9GVK/R ATV repeater that 
covered the DC area but the club has since disbanded.  I simply held up a 
QSL card in front of the camera lens for video ID so I never actually used 
the ^^ FSS.

P.S.  Anyone interested in buying the FSS?  I believe I even have one film 
reel to show with it.
