Practical VCR Repair

by Dave Ronan

This textbook bridges the gap between the sometimes overly simple VCR repair guides aimed at the average do-it-yourself and the highly technical manuals designed for use by experienced radio and TV bench technicians. Complete coverage includes both the "how's" and "why's" of maintaining VHS VCRs, as well as discussion of the practical aspects of interfacing with VCR repair customers. Everything from reading schematics, to use of test equipment, to tips for protecting the VCR and the technician during servicing are included. The reader-friendly style, supported by numerous photos and illustrations and a comprehensive glossary of acronyms and abbreviations, makes this book ideal for use by today's electronics students.
