I'd be more concerned about handling and stacking damage.  On long moves,
your items may be transferred from truck-to-warehouse-to-truck by people

Hi,
  The following is a short of my experience with my S-VHS machine:

  I own a Mits E-82 and I am very happy with the playback - I think its the best
  unit on the Oz market.
  However, the reception of stereo signal has been a source of great heart-ache:
  the problem is the hissing on my speakers when listening to stereo TV 
  reception - the hissing is at times detrimental to pleasant viewing and I 
  have given up
  listening in stereo - mono reception is almost perfect - the hiss disappears
  when the VCR is in mono mode or when the amplifier is in mono mode
  (so it seems that the source of hiss is 180 degrees out of phase).
  I had just visited my Mits distributor only to hear two other decks 
  (incl E-82) do the same thing. The Mits manager said that if I wish I can
  have a refund - I nearly fainted then because I didn't think it possible
  to hear something like this in Oz.
  Hearing 3 Mits decks convinced me of one thing - either I'm bonkers, Mits
  (and it's manager) is bonkers or the whole of Melbourne (except for me) is
  bonkers for tolerating such louse reception. 
  Visiting Brashs store where I bought the unit (I'm definately bonkers for
  buying from there) wasn't of much help - I heard the SANYO unit giving me
  the same hiss.

I have seen a few CD-ROM drives advertising that they support PhotoCD,

This is where I have problems with CHLDC.  Membership obligations are 
fulfilled with purchases of $29.95 and up, and some of the expensive 
boxed sets ($79.95 and up) count as TWO purchases toward fulfillment 
of the agreement.  Take, for example, the "Thin Man" set of five disks: 
if you were to buy them seperately at $30/each, the total would be $150 
($14 more out of your pocket) PLUS you would have both fulfilled your 
obligation and gotten three bonus dividends.  So, carefull in what you 
buy and how you buy it...it may work to CHLDC's advantage, not yours!

I wish that CHLDC would revamp the method of fulfillment and attainment of 
divends based on every $25 or $30 spent.  But then, they'd lose their edge.

I have really fought with this problem on my Sony 46" projection set.
I could get the set calibrated for 6500K, but the color on normal
program material was terrible.  I almost took the set back.  Then I
found out 9300K works much MUCH better, both on the projection set and
on my small Sonys.

I really like the gray scales (parchment white and charcoal grays)
that you get with 6500K, but program color (on both cable and
laserdisk) looks good only on some material.  Yellows are too greenish
in all material and while you can get good flesh tones on some
material, it looks too brownish and harsh on most programs.

But with my sets calibrated to 9300K, I get very good grays and
absolutely gorgeous color on almost all program material.  Yellows are
really yellow, grass is green, and flesh tones are soft and natural
more of the time.

Until the industry changes the standards for the NTSC phosphors, I'll
opt for 9300K over 6500K.

  I will be running all connections in a home theater system
through an a/v receiver.  I'd like to use S-Video throughout,
rather than composite (I must choose one or the other because
of the receiver).
  Now, there is no problem using the S-Video out of the LD
player.  However, I'm not sure about the SVHS machine.  For
SVHS tapes, there is no problem.  I assume for regular VHS
tapes, there is also no problem (am I wrong on this?).  But
what about cable?  Do current SVHS machines run the RF input
through a filter to provide S-Video output?  (I'm looking at
buying the Mits U67).  If not, then how about the LD player
(the Pioneer D701).  Can I use the RF input for cable, utilize
the "three in-line comb filters" and run S-Video out.  Or
perhaps my only option is to split the cable to the tv and vcr
and connect only the audio outs of the vcr to the amp.  The
problem with this last solution is that, according to my cable
company, it is illegal.
  Can anyone shed some light on this for me?  Thanks very much
in advance for any help.  BTW, feel free to email or post,
although, it might be better to email considering the nature
of the question...

I don't know what DSP model you're using, but if it's either DSP-A700 or
DSP-E300, then the solution is as follows: (per the DSP manual, page 37)

	"NOTE: Parameter edits you made on each sound field program
		will remain in effect even with power turned OFF 
		for up to about TWO WEEKS, after which all parameters
		will return to their initial (default) values."

Hope this helps.

	BetaCam, or more properly, High Speed Beta, has almost no
relationship with the Betamax format used by consumers.  In fact,
all they share is the physical tape itself.  The information encoded
on that tape is quite diferent between the two formats.
	As for quality, Betamax is, in general, a better format than VHS.
We're not talking a magnitude of difference here, but enough to make a
difference to a videophile.  BetaCam, a professional television
production format, is higly superior to certain other profesisonal
tape formats such as 3/4" Umatic and Hi8, but it pales next to M2,
D2 or even 1".  It is, generally, cheaper than those better systems,
however, and the results are most acceptable, so yes, it is very
common, especially in local television news departments.

There is an outfit called "Facets Video" located in Texas which rents
rare films.  They have a very wide selection of old American films,
foreign films, documentaries, and lots of other stuff.  It costs something
like $10 to rent a film (on VHS, of course) for a week - they mail the
movie to you, and you mail it back when it's due (you only pay the return
postage).  Their number is 1-800-331-6197.  They have a huge catalog, but
I'm sure you can ask them directly over the phone if they have a specific
film.  Oh, I believe there is a one-time $20 membership charge, but it pays
for your first two rentals.

To my knowledge there are _no_ linear tracks in the 8mm format.  There are 3 
tracks in the 8mm format...

	1) Video + AFM Stereo
	2) Index, RC time code and data code
	3) PCM audio (stereo)

The TR101 and V801 record 1&2.  The CVD-1000 records all three.
