Cuemaster 700

The Cuemaster 700 series, cart machines made by Consolidated Electronics (before the company was known as CEI). As far as I know these machines were released in early 1965 and were likely to be the first Australian made cartridge machine for use in broadcast studios.

The advertisement above shows the only picture I have of a Cuemaster 700.

Rola was woking on their own cartirdge machine during 1966 and 1967, I have drawings and circuit schematics for a machine from this time. It is quite likely that the drawings were for a prototype version of the Plessey CT-80 as there is no model number on the any of the drawings.
