TCR was 3 minutes.</DIV>

<TD vAlign=top>I don't have the specs on the ACR cart capacity but it
was certainly not 20 minutes even at 7.5 IPS As I recall it was 6
minutes of actual program time at 15 IPS as there was a bit of
leader / trailer. I used to use 6 minute carts to make "poor man's test
tapes" for daily use on the VR-2000s. No not the carts on the VRs, wind
them back on plastic spot
reels.<BR><BR>G²<BR><BR>---</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
