JVC HR-S3600U 4-Head S-VHS VCR
nice unit, but complicated
I'm pleased with the VCR, but it took about an hour to get it set up properly.  Plug &amp; play didn't work.  I finally ended up setting the channels and clock manually, and the initial configuration is relatively  complicated.  I am a little bit disappointed with the remote.  One reason  that I selected a JVC VCR is because I hoped it would interoperate well  with my other JVC components, but the remote is awkward to use with my TV  and DBS.  Overall though, it has a lot of nice features for the money, and  the picture quality is good.
