We report the experimental demonstration of quantum teleportation of the quadrature amplitudes of a light field. Our experiment was stably locked for long periods, and was analyzed in terms of fidelity F and with signal transfer Tq=T++T- and noise correlation Vq=Vin| out+Vin| out-. We observed an optimum fidelity of 0.64±0.02, Tq=1.06±0.02, and Vq=0.96±0.10. We discuss the significance of both Tq>1 and Vq<1 and their relation to the teleportation no-cloning limit.
