When I submitted my message a while back about the NEC, Yamaha and Canon VHS HQ models, I didn't have the model numbers for the Yamaha and Canon ones in front of me so I only mentioned the NEC model number (the 961). Well, now that I'm thinking of it again and have the information with me, I'll give you those other two model numbers. The Yamaha YV-1000 and the Canon VR-HF600 both have HQ. The Yamaha has built-in MTS stereo, but the Canon requires an outboard MTS decoder (Canon makes one, the MS-10). -- Dave Johnson Dept. of Computer Science Rice University UUCP: {lbl-csam,cbosgd,shell,convex,sun,texsun}!rice!dbj ARPA: dbj@rice.EDU, dbj@rice.ARPA
