So what started you on the AV road to nirvana?

No i never had a problem with it or them for that matter Neil... The things did need to be fettled though to make 100% sure everything was in precise alignment head wise. Take it from me, unless you have done that & know precisely what you are doing then forget it!

There is the control head azimuth & distance from the drum & then tape alignment around the drum. Alter one thing & the others go out

Like i say, i still have tapes full of music & as my SVHS recorder is no longer used for recording from TV that's the only use it gets.

Damn i could kick myself, apologies for not letting it all sink Neil

The Beast, is this set in afghanistan & involving a Russian tank & crew, one of them kind of defects after he gets tied to a rock & tries to blow the tank up with an RPG along with his new Afghani friends. If i remember right a load of Afghani women kill the tank commander when the remaining crew are attempting to walk back to Russian territory?

Brilliant film, one of my favourites

Good film, an early HBO production I think, slowly being crushed to death by the tank as a means of torture was quite unpleasant...but effective

The Beast on ITV4 just started......
