This week Dick goes to — Dick’s Gadget Warehouse and finds an amazing (?) invention from around 1999 to 2000!
It’s the VCR Co-Pilot. It’s said to: Programs your shows in seconds with simple slide and dial controls.
Just: Select the Day. Select the Record Time. Select the Stop Time
- With simple slide and dial controls you can
- Record a single show
- Record your favorite daily show Monday through Friday
- Record your favorite weekly show each week
VCR Co-Pilot does the rest by sending a signal to your VCR to start and stop recording. Day and Time settings are stored in the VCR Co-Pilot. —- But it looks like you have to make sure you leave your TV set tuned to the channel you want to record, since the device can only handle on/off times. And can only record one show.
Guess what? You can still buy one! But why would you want to?? — $9.99 on Amazon: https://amzn.to/42w20oU

We’d love to include your video in an upcoming Giz Wiz Show!
1. Video can be ANYTHING about a gadget: I bought a piece of crap. I bought a gadget I love. I have an old gadget I can’t part with because it was ‘high tech’ years ago! Even a ‘What The Heck Is It? Gadget.
2. Videos should be just 2 to 3 minutes long in Horizontal Format! Low production value is fine, but we need to hear you and see your gadget clearly! You can be in the video if you like.
3. Post your Video on YouTube and click ‘unlisted’ when you upload it if you want, but not “Private” or we won’t be able to see it. Send us the URL link from YouTube.
4. If we show your video (and we show 99% of them) and live in the US or Canada you’ll get an autographed current issue of MAD.) But no matter where you live outside of the US & Canada, I’ll autograph an Alfred E. Neuman photo to you, scan it & email you a high res image. Just print it out, frame it, or just hang it up and no one will know it’s a copy. We’ve tested it out and fans say they look terrific!
