No thankfully both were recorded FROM HB0!! (Well Back to the future I know was .. Star wars 3 I dont know what pay channel it came from,most likely HBO)


About copies: The audio always drops on them,havent seen one that the audio is the same level.... I guess I could try PAC.. I have a GO-VIDEO unit I could try to make copies on....

Star Wars 3 would have to be in LP mode as its too long for most tapes.. (I suppose if I had a T-160 it might all fit in SP mode (Star wars 3 is 130Mins))

Ya sure you want them???? -- Most ppl are not like me,these are straight analogue recordings off analog cable in the 80s...... (To me they are gold but not to many others)

Would be interesting. I tend to favor the older "Natural" look and sound of tv from 70's-80's. Also looking for vintage commercials.

I picked up about 170 tapes. But I had a lot of Dr. Who tapes before, so in the picture there there's more like 260 tapes with duplicates.

Just bought two, three packs of TDK T160 tapes. A closeout at the drugstore, where I buy my Tracphone card. $2.59 per three pack.
I try to buy them, whenever I can, as long as they're reasonably priced.
I have a feeling that their days are numbered, as to availability.
