Didn’t know they had stereo Beta VCRs in Japan by 1979, they started broadcasting TV in stereo then also. Glad I have a machine that can play linear stereo, hope to find some recordings on beta from Japanese TV.

Nice to see you back Ray! I always loved that video rack and A/V equipment you got there.

Are there any other Beta's similar in appearance to the Sony SL-HF1000D? I happened to be watching an old VHS recording from around 1992 yesterday. The video was recorded in the Portland, Oregon area. There was a commercial for the Sony store. They showed a VCR that looked very similar to that one. They didn't say whether it was a Beta or VHS. I paused the video to get a better look. Unfortunately, the recording was in EP so I still couldn't tell for sure.

Yes, the American-market SL-HF750 is very similar to the 1000D. Do a Google search.

Do you still have your SL-HF2100??
