- Well, I acquired yet more electronic "junk" at the weekend! This one's
- a 1980 Philips video cassette recorder, model VR2020. It takes the
- amazing Philips "VCC" or "Video 2000" tapes which I believe are unique
- in that you can turn them over and record on the other side!
-
- Now the bad news is that the machine's servo system seems to be faulty
- and Philips no longer supply manuals or circuit diagrams (schematics).
- The symptom of the fault, BTW, is that the sound is OK, but the video
- won't sync up in the vertical direction.
-
- So, does any one know where I can get a manual/circuit for this thing?
- Thanks in advance...
