[TechAssist] Re: RCA VCR, Mod- VR692HF Recording Problem


Thanks for the tip, i recorded on that machine for over 5 hours, different
times.  I asked the customer what kind of tapes he was using, and he said he
was using the same tapes over and over, just recording over them.  So then i
asked if he had a separate rewinder.  He did, so i figured his rewinder was
rewinding the tapes too tight.  Does this make sense?  I have seen it
before, and during the recording, the tape drags... and therefore the
machine powers off.  Does that sound like a logical theory.  Neverless the
customer wasn't happy, he is one of those that thinks his way is perfect, my
theory was just only a suggestion to him, maybe to buy some new tapes, and
try it then.. Let me know what you think,

David

David,

I had one with the same symptoms, a couple of months ago, but don't know if
it was your model #. The problem with it was the capstan motor needed to
have all the old lubrication removed and relubricated. If I remember right
it was making a noise in rewind also.

                                        Good luck!
