"Cable-in" was something I had seen someone suggest a dozen years ago in this forum. Said that the NV-3120 produced a signal on channels 5 and 6, but that may have been using an RF unit.

Thanks, I will stick with the RCA video in.

I attempted to play two different tapes without cleaning the heads of each machine. I then attempted to clean the heads of two of the five machines using 99% alcohol and softly moving horizontally across the heads and removing some black deposits. Nothing alarming.

I then attempted to play the same two tapes on those machines where I had used alcohol.

I baked one tape in which I have no interest for 8 hours at between 130 and 140 degrees F in a food dehydrator.

So far, not a hint of a signal from any unit. Narrowing it down to the TV's RCA Video connector and the Video Out on the R2R unit will make my experiments easier. Thanks for that!
