    HR20 died - can I retrieve recorded stuff for transfer?

    My faithful HR20-700 finally quit so thinking about getting another HR20 but want to consider a newer HR25 with AM21 for the locals.

I was told by D* that they don't have any more HR20s so I found one on eBay for a reasonable price. Well, when trying to order an...
