I took it to the local Video Repair Store and they said,"Hmm. $15 in advance and we'll look at it and maybe give you an estimate." I didn't have $15 at that moment and was mad as hell (they hadn't mentioned the $15 when they invited me to bring in the set over the phone - a 15 minute drive). So I took it apart myself, cleaned it up a bit, bought a cleaning tape, Zip, good as new. I still have the cleaning tape, the VCR was borrowed. Moral: Never say Never. -Dick Grantges hound!rfg
