Link 103 Television Camera
This Link 103 camera, donated
to the collection, was last used by Sheffield Cable Vision. It was 'camera
1' from an experimental TV station in Sheffield that closed in 1976.
Pictured here in "as received" condition, it has not been
stored in good conditions and will need considerable restoration.
The
CCU is missing. The CCU may have been similar to the Link 104 CCU.

I browsed your website with great
interest, particularly the ex Sheffield Cablevision Link 103.
I was an engineer there during its lifetime. There were 3 103's. one with
a 10:1 zoom & two with 5:1 zooms. The CCU's were in a "mobile"
desk with a Link PG, some Link D.A's & a Cox Vision Mixer. I have
no idea what happened to the equipment in the desk.
Cheers.
