Yeah, it is why we have switched to satellite. Looking at the screen upside down became tiresome + with the satellile beaming downhill reception was a lot easier to get. And yes, the bathwater does go down the sink anticlockwise.

I refrained from more specific tape recommendations as they are often given different labelling in the Southern hemisphere. Also, I have found that some of my older Mexell & TDK tapes level in quality with their latest extra high grade ones, suggesting their current "high quality" has a different connotation to that a couple of decades ago. BTW videotape is a fraction of the cost it was when VHS first hit the deck over 20 years ago - something like 1/10th when you take inflation etc into account.

I will follow your investigation with interest. I presume you have done a search on the net for that info - I find "Google" particularly effective as a search engine.
