[QuadList] QuadList Digest, Vol 43, Issue 13

Our FM station, WFMT, used Sony PCM encoders for several years to record remotes and other events. They recorded to BetaMax. Some of their encoders had a big multi cable that came out the side of them to a dedicated recorder.  Others, just took video in and out on the regular connectors.  The machine needs to be operating in the black and white mode -- which should elmininate the comb filter -- and the DOC needs to be turned off.  Many higher end Beta machines have a switch for this.  U-matics, such as the BVU series, as well.  If the DOC is on, it will mess up the built in error correction by repeating data.

Park,
   I have an F1, but its condition is unknown.
   You also need to play the tape in a machine that does not have a
uma comb filter, or one that has a switchable comb filter.
