Scully 280B tape machine

[bob]

Hi, I ahve a scully 280B machine to repair but don't have a manual, it's
proving to be a bit of a pig. Does anyone have the said manual, I'll pay
for a copy.

Thanks

Used to be that Sequoia Electronics had all the parts and manuals for those.
When Mel died last year, I think all of his stock was sold to someone else
out on the coast... probably VIF?

Thanks Scott, sounds like a good lead. I don't suppose you'd know a
number / email address for them would you? Google isn't helping.
Thanks

Ask Alan Garren at Waltzing Bear Studios in Portland, Or. I know he has
a couple 280B machines and he'll know who got Mel's parts inventory.
The number I have for VIF is 800-848-4428.
