Well, things are starting to settle down here a bit and I thought I'd pull out one of my Goodwill finds and see if I can get it working...... an Uher 8000 that I bought for $25 a little over a year ago.
Plugged it in and absolutely nothing happened, so I decided to start taking it apart. What a mess!!! I do believe it was a single family mouse dwelling for a few years.
Cleaning out the mouse house, I discovered what I was afraid of. For some reason, mice love wire insulation. Now on the farm, I've had to rewire equipment that the mice get into over the winter. I don't think this is enough to deter me. I'm hoping its as simple as tracing the wires and replacing them.
This though..... might be the deal breaker....
Are the tape heads too bad off to get em back? This is something I have no expertise on and would like y'alls opinion.
Thanks,
Brad
