Description

The Sanyo VTC-M20 was a front-loading "Betacord" comparable to the Sony SL-C20. Not many were sold in the UK market, making it difficult to find today. The UK model ('UB' variant) was in dark pewter grey with blue eject and yellow pause buttons, with black channel/clock/counter buttons. It did not have a TV/ant switch due to different UK TV requirements. The remote control always matched the colour of the VCR. Part of a lineup that included the VTC-M10 (basic) and VTC-M30 (more advanced).
