I live in Denmark, I have tried to search the specific U models mentioned in the buying guide, but they are few and expensive. And from the PAL models in Europe I have experienced it is difficult to get a good high end model with TBC. Many seems to "circulate" on
ebay, being worn out or having minor errors, or just beeing plain defect. Just bought two NV-HS1000 which I had to sell again as defect for 1/3 of the price.
"Plain" models is much easier to get in good shape. I cannot just search the "U" models, I can only search specific numbers which I do not know. I cannot limit the search to USA only to "world" if I want US included.
Search for "NTSC Videorecorder" only gives a lot from Europe that claims to be NTSC but is "NTSC on PAL" meaning not real NTSC.
This is why I am looking for a list of some of the newest NTSC models of Panasonic and JVC, also low end models without TBC and maybe even without Super VHS. Low running hours and young age is most important. Maybe I could even find one in Europe, saving some freight and import tax.
Toshiba true Multistandard could also be interesting, but I do not really need that because I allready have some good PAL units.
