The key to what John described is that the VR-1100 included Amtec which provides time base correction.  Although Colortec is required to get properly locked subcarrier, the output from Amtec is sufficient to "work" with many monitors if everything is very carefully adjusted as he described.  The problem with the TR-5 is that it has no type of time base correction at all, so the output is only usable in B&W.  You can certainly add external devices to allow color playback into a monitor, but again, I would raise the question of whether that accurately portrays the machine in a museum setting.

    Re the Betacam gear, the adaptor for color viewing from the camera was an odd black box, not really suitable for field use, but ok to use in an emergency for playback. 
    I used to get "viewable" color playback from a VR1100 with just using the Amtec output  (and careful guide and tip adjustment) to a color monitor.
