Larry:

I am posting this because I don't have a clue how to respond to you in a
more direct manner.  However, I am running many experiments that require
IBM PC control of a typical home VCR.  I would greatly appreciate a few
more details about how to wire up the circuit you described.  A rough
schematic diagram showing how to wire the interface board and connect it
to the IBM PC parallel port would be most helpful.  My address is:

Thanking you in advance for your kind assistance.

Thanks again, AJ Annala
