Restored Machines
I generally do not repair the older top loader machines because they are more difficult to repair and source belts at a reasonable price, cost more to post and are less practical to use these days because they no longer sit on the top of conventional TVs plus many have difficult AV connections.In Australia, analogue television transmissions ceased in 2013. As a result, the original Beta VCR tuners will no longer work and television programs can only be recorded using a separate digital TV tuner, connected to the external audio and video inputs.
