well i have been lurking on this forum for some time and decided to join today. anyways i needed a new vcr my nerish sanyo brokedown so i went to goodwill looking for something that felt heavy and old and relible but cheap. i found this philips vcr form the 80s and decided to gget it i had no way to test it in the store besides putting a tape in it and watching the vu meters so i bought it and i think it has worn heads if so how much would a replacement drum cost for this? and i was wondering if anyone had a link to the manuel because fore some functions like the viss i cant figure out for the life of me how to use it.i did clean the heads and they were prettyy gunked up and dull looking not shiny like most but a quick cleaanin fixed this i plan on useing this in my bedroom for timeshifting. alsoo any mods that i can make to improve it or tips and also REVIEWS anyone thing this deck would be good for everynogh tuse at least 300 days out of the year i also forgot to mention that i did clean out all grease and oil and put the same amaount of white lithum grease in its place the old was dried out and squeaking badly now silent as a mouse except for the normal vcr sounds.
