Grades of tape

[LORD HASENPFEFFER <MYKEC@delphi.com>]

I was always fond of Maxell XL-II high bias audiocassettes when I used

my PXL so many years ago.



For taping directly to a VCR, always use a good brand name tape like

Maxell or TDK and try to do it in SP mode if you can.



What's all this talk about adding an RF-out jack to a PXL-2000 that I've

been reading on this list lately?  The PXL-2000 I had in 1989/90 had an

RCA jack already in it that would put out a video signal that I could

feed directly into the back of my VCR.  That's how I made so many of my

PXL recordings with my VCR instead of on cassette tapes.  I think the 

sound came out with the video from the same jack or something.  It's been

a long time and my memory is sketchy on just exactly how I did it, but I

distinctly remember a female RCA jack on the back end of it just above

the handle - or at least that's where I think it was located.  Just what

are these modifications mentioned on this list for that that jack can't

do?
