Heh! I'm so addicted to Rush that I have about 5 months of his show archived on tape with special recording gear. I'm going to be creating a, "Rush Archive," ping list in case someone needs a quote from a certain date and time of his show. Others are (I think) going to work on the same for Hannity, Savage, and the rest, as well as the TV news.
I have a 1963/64 Sony Tapecorder 600, reel-to-reel, that if I set it at the slow speed, 3 3/4 ips, I can get a whole show of Rush on one reel. I can also set it to record a single track instead of both stereo tracks so I can run one show on track one and another on track two. Back in 1992, I recorded the famous show where he said "tax the poor more" and I think I still have it somewhere.

Oh yeah?
I have a
Versacorder. It can record up to 4 hours on one side of a 110 minute cassette.
THEN, I have a
Quarter Speed Tape Player that I use to listen to the whole three hour show. No commercials, either, because I'm also a member of Rush 24-7.
Nyaa-nya-nya-nya-NYAA-nyaaa!

You can use a VCR to record a show sans video signal. I used them for all sorts of audio recording as one can put six hours of music, talk, etc. on a cassette. I have an old Zenith unit that I record music off of CD's to and can use it to play through a good sound system or just play through a decent sounding TV. All this started more than 10 years ago when CD's and CD decks were not too cheap so I would just borrow some stuff and record it on my old but very good VCR. I have a Sangean radio with a timer and hook up the VCR, with timer, to record radio programs. Problem is, I still don't have time to listen. Once a friend used a inverter and installed a VCR in his car so he could listen to music and his favorite radio recorded programs on his long commute. I think that is a bit over the top.
