- I have a couple of questions regarding vcr cleaning and my snowy picture
- when I tape.
-
- My Panasonic vcr is 5 years old and I've been taping soap operas 5 days a
- week for about 4 years.
-
-
- I took my vcr in to be cleaned by a reputable electronics company about a
- month ago. My picture today is almost completly snowy, but the sound is
- great.
-
- When I took my vcr in, the guy said they would clean it but if you go back
- to using the same tape, it will gunk up the heads again and you'll be back
- where you started.
-
- My problem is that I have a roommate who also uses the vcr to do aerobics
- with and uses the same tape. Is there anyway she can clean her tape when I
- get my vcr cleaned so we don't have this gunky problem with the heads?
-
- Any other suggestions? Please e-mail me personally.
