Video I/O

It has two issues:
The timecode display recently showing some letters dropping out (see photo)
but seems to be normal after being powered on for 5 minutes.
All hours for Drum/operation etc...in the last photo shown.
Insert & eject tape mechanism operates smoothly, however there is a "gear
sound" when it threads and unthreads tape. It has been this way for two
years, but still operates just fine.  Perhaps a tape thread adjustment
calibration is needed.
Ships via Fedex ground in original Sony packaging to mainland usa only.
Sold as is.  No returns.
