    Neat . I’ve been thinking of turning a tk76 into a lunch box.

    Will the post office actually deliver to this?

    I ran one of those back in the early 70’s while in college. Worked at the local on campus PBS station. The station could only afford one at the time. So for almost a year, we did shows with one camera!! It was a hoot! 🙂

    This Hitachi camera is very similar to the Shibaden FPC-1000u 3-vidicon camera I used when I worked in Cable TV during the early 70s. Shibaden was subsequently acquired by Hitachi.

    Wouldn’t last five minutes in a South Florida neighborhood.

    I had a friend who converted an Ampex 1000 VTR into a bar.

    Great idea for a rural area…I have a GE PE-400, and the city & the USPS will not allow it as a mailbox..Oh well I see one TV camera made it to a pedestal for all to enjoy.

    Hitachi? Yeah, that’s about right…

    Cameras belong in production, not post.

    Does he register it with USPS Video Control?

    Lives not far from me…..quite the head turner.

    If they had mailboxes on the street I live on, we’d have this. Right Maryanne? Please?

    Does the tally light go on when there is mail?

    Makes me wonder if anyone has ever mistaken it for a traffic camera 😀
