Sneak Peek at the HD Truck Being Built for Access Sacramento
The company building a new traveling High Definition TV control room remote truck for Access Sacramento featured the vehicle in its Holiday Greetings message last week.
TV Pro Gear added a few of Santa's Elves to the truck--- but this 28-foot Isuzu vehicle is just about ready for a coat of white paint before being handed over to the company that will build and install the cabinets and racks that will hold all of the technology. After six weeks of fabrication there, the vehicle will be ready for the next six-weeks of equipment installation, wiring and testing.
The initial showing will actually be in Las Vegas, NV where the Access Sacramento HD Truck will be a showpiece for TV Pro Gear during the 2016 NAB Show: the annual national convention and trade show for TV, radio, cable and internet providers sponsored by the National Association of Broadcasters. The event draws more than 80,000 attendees each year.
The truck is being paid for under a special one-time grant to Access Sacramento from the Sacramento Metropolitan Cable Television commission as a way to replace the standard-definition 4:3 converted RV that has been the production home for Game of the Week and Hometown TV events for a decade.
