The Apollo 11 Television Broadcast
as
relayed from Sydney Video
This is a recording of the feed that was being sent by satellite to the US from Sydney. It was identified by Colin Mackellar in 2006. This is the only complete recording which has the Honeysuckle video from the start.
It is scan-converted (i.e. NTSC, not slow scan TV) and was recorded on a quadriplex machine, probably the Ampex VR-660 that was in Sydney Video. This recording is a copy, not the original.
See the 4 x side-by-side comparison below
to see what was seen internationally, what was broadcast on Australian TV and what was sent to the US from Honeysuckle.
In addition to this recording, other Australian recordings of parts of the beginning of the TV have been found.
