I just picked up a great price Fostex A8 - which has a very strange issue. When hitting rewind or RTZ, sometimes I can hear the tape playing backwards at fast speed, and other times I can’t. It seems to be completely random. Any ideas what this could be?
Also, possibly related, sometimes it doesn’t rewind at all, and I have to play the tape for a few seconds then try again & all works fine!
