I had an Akai X-IV portable until my last house move that would
play back the crossfield bias signal.

Still have an X-V somewhere :-)
(I doub't it still works since it hasn't been turned on for a couple
of decades however.)

No problem, I have parts for all the Roberts/Akai machines since I
bought out the North American distributor's inventory when they
closed. Please take them. Please.

Rubber roller opposing capstan X1800SD?

Yes, however the ones I have are probably sticky. Take the original
one and have it recapped. The Ampex Mailing List parts directory
on the web should have a half-dozen companies in the US that do rubber
recapping. Or ask your local offset printshop who rebuilds their rollers
and platens, they should have no problem doing it.

I think the last pinch roller I had done was a Nagra IV and they charged
$20 or so.
