Default Consumer NICAM Modulators. Did any exist?

Hi Folks

I've recently been working on a project to recreate an analogue TV transmission including NICAM audio - just for a laugh.

I bought this Philips PM5687 NICAM modulator to create the NICAM carrier. I've been able to demod its output successfully in software so I think it probably works. Some work to do before that's part of a full vision + FM audio carrier however.

Back to my question though - was there ever a consumer grade product which can create NICAM? Whether it be a VCR, standalone modulator, DVD player etc. I've been searching for hours and have come up with nothing! Just want to be sure I wasn't crazy buying this thing!
