Bell&Howell Datatape, located
in Pasadena, California during the 70s and 80s designed
and manufactured state of the art magnetic tape recorders which
were typically used for telemetry by military and aerospace facilities
and laboratories. NASA used them to record the Apollo missions
video which became the "Lost Apollo Tapes". The early
ballistic missile launches at Vandanburg Air Force Base were recorded
on the one inch wide tape. Other laboratories such as Los Alamos
and Sandia had many of them.
The US Naval recorded sonar for spectral analysis.
