Re: Philips VR2020/VR2022
I sold a large number of these in 1982/3, mostly the Pye 20VR22. This was similar in appearance to the original Philips VR2020 that first appeared around 1979/80 as the successor to the Philips N1700. Technically, they were very very advanced but there were some issues with reliability. Several of the machines that I sold required replacement video head drums during the warranty period. Having said that, I still have a Pye 20VR22 in regular use after 37 years.
