No, these were EIA. I've seen EIA bars generated by Tektronix generators, and their timing was exactly the same as on their SMPTE bars. What I was asking is which brand generator would have had the timing I mentioned, and it looks like it could've been Richmond Hill Labs' TS-13C or whatever followed it. I'm just asking for verification of which specific generator, based on the stations mentioned (KOLO, WTVS, CHCH, TV Ontario, etc.).

It's definitely not the Leader LCG-400. Have one here in my studio, and they lack the 3-step setup bars at the bottom. Just one flat line at 7.5 IRE.

If that's been stated already sorry for the redundancy. Just the first thing I noticed.

Oh, that's what a PLUGE is. Just looked it up. Learn something new every day.

Well regardless, the LCG-400 doesn't have that.
