Funk, 2 people that sold cassettes (I only spoke to them on the phone, so I don't know old they are, but of the 2 seemed at least 40 years old) didn't even heared of U-Matic. Com'on, you're selling video cassettes and you don't know what U-Matic or Betacam is. Sheesh
Oh yeah, that's what most jobs here are like, if one can even get one.

Back on topic, come to think of it a branch of "The Source" disappeared from a nearby business park some time ago. I don't know when it disappeared, I found out it was gone when I thought they might have something I actually needed. I got a couple of 75-300 Ohm matching transformers from that store. One is in a junk box and still sealed. I should toss it, I've ran across so many older, better units since then.
