<DIV><FONT size=3>The key to what John described is that the VR-1100 included
Amtec which provides time base correction. Although Colortec is required
to get properly locked subcarrier, the output from Amtec is sufficient to "work"
with many monitors if everything is very carefully adjusted as he
described. The problem with the TR-5 is that it has no type of time base
correction at all, so the output is only usable in B&W. You can
certainly add external devices to allow color playback into a monitor, but
again, I would raise the question of whether that accurately portrays the
machine in a museum setting. </FONT></DIV>
