Lot nicer than my no-name junker. Heh. But it was cool the way the motor flipped one way or the other and drove the rubber on the hubs there. And no, my junker died many many years ago. Motors never lasted on them and eventually, since there was a permanent magnet erase head and no "bias" the head would get magnetized and they'd just get more and more distorted with time. True garbage they was!So no ... just a handy pic to show that I remember the junkers. Still have my SONY PRE-EIAJ open reel half inch video machine with SONY B&W camera though. (grin) Dates back to somewhere around 1973'ish ... |
