It's funny, but if you zoom in on the back of the unit, the manufacture date is January 2006. Also, why does it need two analog audio outputs?

"Welcome to RAD VCR,
We have a $20 gift code for you!
Type "I WANT" below if you want a $20 gift code"
That is awfully nice of them!
You know it is a scam when a 5 star review says they hooked up the color coded red, yellow, and white cables, it snapped right on, and the "sound is crisp and the visuals are clear." Bwahahahaha. Only if they are deaf and blind, and no one talks like that anyway except robots whose primary language is not english.

I don't expect the general public to be aware of this, but manufacturing economically priced VCR's is a large scale operation. The idea that a small operation could do this is bogus. If physical units actually exist, most likely someone found a cache of units or subassemblies in an abandoned basement somewhere. The 'RAD' logo could be a Photoshop creation for the website or a 3D printed add on. I wonder if 15 year old belts are still viable.

I mean, yeah. Good idea if you find a dinosaur that NEEDS a VCR. I totally missed the HDMI port. Looks like it was crammed in there, probably with a $11 converter.
Now I think they need to get on the 5CD carousel train and start pumping those out. :)

That model was originally a Funai OEM unit that also could be sourced with a Phillips or Magnavox label. Used them in RV's and guest rooms for years. Had one client with a special needs child that knew how to operate that particular model, so I kept several on the shelf and just swapped them out when they died or were fed the wrong things like say a sandwich in the VCR slot.

Still, I think there will be connoisseurs of retro things, even in a new way) Yeah, hook that thing up to a Sanyo receiver, a pair of Omega III speakers and an Admiral TV- that's livin'!

why does it need two analog audio outputs? There's one output for the left channel of analog audio and another output for the right channel of analog audio. Note: I don't know why they bothered, but you can't clear your cache of "adscams" by just typing it in.
