Seems to be a lot of "how do i align this" or "is this TRS-?? any
good". Maybe this just means that there's a whole new crop of
guys...the TapeOp generation that are buying these old decks for next
to nothing from the proper studios/engineers.
This is both good and bad. Good that the decks are still being used
and that guys just starting out are getting decent equipment to work
on. Bad that most aren't going to have the proper tools (test
equipment or MRL tapes) or skills to do things like normal maintenance
and even spice tape.
Oh well...just an observation.
