I was thinking the same thing. I fixed a VCR for my Aunt last summer - and
she had it hooked up similarly in "series" like that with the RF connectors.
She claimed one wouldnt record off the 1st one, so I tried telling her that
the channel of the 1st VCR had to be set to 3 or 4, but she lost me after
that - and you know how old ladies are anyway. She wound up giving me the
VCR for free, saying I can use it for parts, then she bought another one.
BTW - nothings wrong with the Fisher she
gave me, so I sold it on Ebay for $20 bucks. I expect another service call
from "auntie" at some point when she needs someone to talk to over Tea &
crumpets...! LOL.
Probably wind up with the Panasonic next...heh.
