EDIT: Ok, I checked and it's the KCMO TV5 (kansas city, mo) version. The beginning does seem to be cut off- there's a bit of battle with the star destroyers, then the first line Han speaks is "ok, I'm turning back". That version does seem to start with the pause button on, on the versions I've seen. And yes, the beginning is cut off a little bit, which is the case on most other versions too, unfortunately. But not on the KCCI version - it's totally complete.

So, the KCCI version is the best one?
Hands-down, there's no comparison. It's miles away from the other versions in terms of quality. I'll be surprised if we ever unearth another broadcast copy that's better than the KCCI.
