Thanks for the speedy reply. Forgot about trying a cleaning
cassette (have one, but it might be too old).

In fact, other than the fact that the vcr is soooo easy to
program, it does not have any wonderful bells and whistles.
Plus, when I try to play tapes it has recorded on my newer
VCR, there is usually a synchronization problem with voice
and image. So the mouths are moving, but the words don't match!!

This is good. You can practice lip reading, and learn if you got it
right just a couple seconds later. If the sound comes out earlier,
change which one records and which one plays.

When you are done, you'll be able to watch spies having meetings in
outdoor cafes, and you'll be able to repeat what they say.

Will try the cleaning (btw, it does record even if only b&w)
and then (probably) start looking for a new one.
