HISTORY
Andrew
Holloway officially began his career in electronics when he joined
EMI
Electronics in Hayes, England, in 1964 - but it all began long before then,
as
a hobby when he was only 8 years old. At 14 he build his first (27-valve)
TV receiver.
Since
then he has been involved in design, development and commissioning of
TV
(and other) projects, from camera through to transmitter and aerials.
Andrew
originally came to South Africa to carry out final commissioning, on-site
modifications,
and
staff training on all EMI-made equipment supplied to the SABC during its
TV start-up phase -
this
encompassed routing and switching equipment in Auckland Park (and regional
centres),
plus
all vision mixers and special effects units etc. installed in the studios
and
outside
broadcast vehicles. He followed this with responsibility for design, installation,
and
maintenance of TV transposers supplied to various municipalities, and for
country-wide maintenance
of
computerised X-ray ("CAT") scanners (and all other products supplied by
EMI Electronics in SA).
He
was then involved as a founder of Johannesburg Video (later Avvid, and
then part of Spescom),
followed
by the foundation of Chroma Video (later part of the Toron/Video Lab partnership,
then becoming ZSE-TV).
A.Holloway
(Electronics) as a stand-alone has been in existence for fourteen years
now,
and
we have designed and built a considerable range of video processing equipment
-
distribution
amplifiers (video and audio), switchers, matrices, etc.
