I only had quick look at it so far, and apart from the lever of one the record enable switches being broken off it seems in good shape. It must have come from some pro or semi-pro environment - it has XLR connectors and there's a sticker on the back saying it is (was) aligned for Agfa PEM468 (which was my favourite tape as well). > However, now you're going to need to find the head demagnetiser > and test tapes and... :-) I _should_ have a demagnetiser somewhere, but haven't seen it for ages... as for test tapes... is MRL still in business ?
