Cool 7-Pin DUB Cable

IIRC, the 7-Pin cable was called a Dub Cable in U-Ville, I don't think it is analogous to S-Video. S-Video is simply separated Y and C, with the C being at the broadcast standard frequency (3.58, 4.33). The U-Matic Dub signal was the RF directly off the heads (C @ 688KHz, or YC688) which allowed bypassing the up-down conversion steps of dubbing with composite.
