In this edition, SVC contributing editor Bennett Liles wraps up his chat with Craig Jutson of Community Television of Santa Cruz County, Calif. on the new CTV remote truck. Craig provides details on the truck’s recording capability, how it is used for sports coverage and talks about CTV’s plans to eventually expand to covering music events with the unit’s multi-track recording capability. The mixer and the audio system are explored and the various budget decisions that shaped the vehicle’s design and equipment are also a topic. Useful links:
