Default anyone still use their vcr?

ok, you might be able to help - how do you record a program from digital
tv? we thought we were recording west wing (oh, why did they change it
to Sunday?) but we got an hour of snow instead.. maybe things are hooked
wrong?

We have a dedicated channel number on ours for satellite - doesn't
matter what satellite programme, same number. Unfortunately DS is
inclined to change it if he's here for some reason. Its either A1 or
A2 at the moment, so I have the present setting marked on the recorder
(and I usually do a test run to make sure I've really remembered which
it is!). Our TV is digital and the recorder isn't so the picture
quality is a bit iffy. With all the new advances and changes coming
(one big electrical store has already stopped selling Video recorders)
we will save our pennies for a DVD (or whatever has superceded
them!).--

Still use mine to tape Simply Quilts at eeek o'clock. Even got a new one
this year....have had quite a time getting it to 'record' from Dish
Satellite. So far it has only recorded ONE show : ( And it says EASY set-up!
Yeah, right : )

I still use the VCR to watch information type tapes---Sewing with Nancy,
and DH looks at wood work tapes that he sometimes gets. Got any of those
types you want to get rid of?

I'm cleaning today - well, not really, but wandering aimlessly from
room to room thinking about cleaning...I just had a thought: anyone
want to trade VCR tapes for fat quarters or scraps? I have donated a
lot of videos over the past few years, but still have quite a few left
that I'd like to part with. Email me if you'd like a list.
(In case this seems too off-topic, one is "how to make an american
quilt").
