   When you are the engineer at a TV station where you have zero allowed
downtime, and equipment in five sepearte locations to maintain, consumer
stuff _IS_ crap.  I had agroup that won a FCC construction permit for a
low power UHF TV station.  They actually thought that they could go on
the air with used camcorders and a cheap, unbalanced mic mixer from
Radio Shack.
