NICAM audio was always demodulated back to conventional 20 to 20kHz analogue audio and then recorded as such using the standard FM depth modulation technique on VHS.

I used to have a NICAM Sony C9 Beta that I made a small plug in NICAM module for. Geez, (and for the second time this month on here)... I must have been keen back then. Pity it only had the linear audio tracks and not true FM HiFi.
