A New Toy

[SteveM]

I got this new portable reel to reel coming from ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=200336245329

I'm got sort of infatuated with it but I don't know much about it. I wonder if it's full track mono, half track mono, what speed it records at, how many heads it has.....if it works. Can't wait to get it.

Woo Hoo!!! You've got to take that baby to a concert and hold the mic in the air!

Great find.

Hey, you could go back and relive those memories.

Rich Smith:

Thanks for the congrats. I figure I can't lose for 14 bucks, well 30 with shipping. Looks like it's built like a mini tank.

Not yet. It's coming from California and I'm on the East coast so I wouldn't expect it til probably Monday.

Still waiting for it......
