I have been in a combination of broadcast and industrial television for
40 years, and I have never heard of anything being called a Cherry
Picker before except a bucket truck.  Since bucket trucks are often used
in TV Production, especially so in Industrial Television, it wouldn't
have been off-target at all to have included it on this list.  I suppose
I should have taken a shot at cable television at some point in my
career, but the thought never struck me to do so.  So, I guess that
there is very possibly a whole slug of TV literacy which has been denied
to me.  But, being the helpful little soul that I always try to be, if
your associate ever does purchase a bucket truck, he or she might just
be able to pick-up the shop manual for it on Ebay.=20

Drew;

I guess I should have explained just a bit more.  First, the associate
did buy the unit on Ebay.

A Terayon Cherry Picker (www.terayon.com)  is a box that takes in
multiple transport streams, processes the tables and streams, and
permits one to output to multiple transports streams.  They're used by
broadcasters and cable TV systems.

Me trying to work with a cherry-picker to get up a pole: that's a
priceless image.  I gave up those dreams with my childhood.  I think
such a request would have been at least slightly off-topic.
