Glad to hear it was just a tracking issue, that is a seriously nice deck.
Rotating the pages helped immensely. Thanks for the heads-up.

Also Dave A, thanks for those bits of information. I honestly had to do a little research on the workings of Time Base Correction but that helped me get a better idea how some of this video gear works. Very helpful.

They certainly do seem to get hot don't they? After maybe ten minutes of use the power supply felt pretty toasty. Seems to be a common theme with JVC gear. All of the Dynamic Super A receivers I've had run surprisingly hot, and apparently the motor housing on my turntable was sufficient enough for a spider to incubate eggs.

Either way, I'll be sure to do that. I'd imagine it probably needs some manner of electrical work anyway.
