While TV does work reasonably well, it should be serviced if anyone actually
wants to use it (although photos were not "sync'd" up with the screen, the
entire screen does actually work and show the signal. The camera just
shuttered too quick to show the entire video field). Minor crack in the upper right corner that doesn't effect
performance. (see photos above) Original swivel, telescopic antenna is
intact, but top 2 segments pull completely out. Measure 9" tall x 13.5" wide

Refurbished,
"Top-Loading", Sanyo 4300 Beta / Betamax VCR. Plays Beta II & Beta

transport. Loads & ejects fine. Plays, FF & Rew well. We did not test for Record
as most Beta machines are sought
after for archiving tapes to a different format. We reconditioned the rubber
pinch roller and other internal belts. We checked all heads / tape
path for azimuth, adjusting where necessary. We also de-magnetized the heads
and entire transport. Fixed the typical "sluggishness" of 20+ year old VCR's
FF and Rew, by installing a new main belt. Rewinds well when started from the end of
the tape, which is where you would usually rewind anyway. All lamps and
displays function fine. RCA & "F" connector video & audio I / O's. This is a good machine for watching your old Beta
tapes and doing transfers / transferring your Beta Tapes to DVD, VHS,

Great looking "Top Loader". We have changed most belts and re-conditioned
the rest. Internally cleaned and re-lubed. We also cleaned the video and
audio heads and adjusted azimuth on the audio heads. Tested for loading,
eject, FF, Rew and Playback. The only issue is the power switch button is
missing, so you must either keep the power button on, or use something like
an ink pen to push it in or out. We did not at this point test for
recording, as the machine will most likely be used for transferring your
tapes to DVD or Hard Drive. Comes with channel 3 plug-in module.
