>>23534324I have taken them apart, its a pain in the ass but doable. hmm so maybe the tape is too loose which is why its like that. very possble since the belts on this thing dont grip like they used to.
I started working on this pre-covid and im glad i did, i contacted an old guy on the west coast who had a ton of old belts and i sent him mine from this unit and he matched them up and got me going. Im gonna guess he's either retired or dead now.
here what it looks like if i take the top of the tape off (it actually plays inside the unit with some finageling)
if VX tapes on ebay werent so damn expensive i would buy a pre-recorded one from someone else and see how it plays in my unit to see if its just shitty tapes or if the unit is still not working correctly.
