There's possibly a forum somewhere that deals with old tape recorders. Maybe someone can direct me there? I'll be brief, and take a shot at the problem in case someone here has dealt with it.

I thought I'd dust off my old Sony 350 while I was posting on this forum about questions concerning super 8 video. I think the 350 needs to have it's head cleaned and maybe a spot of lubricant placed somewhere. I can play a music tape, but it crackles every once in a while, and the take up reel stalls on occasion--every 10-15 sec or so. That causes tape to spill around the take up reel, which could lead to trouble.

Thanks, but I got this: Sorry, we are unable to register your account at this time. I did find another forum. HomeRecording and did get on there.

This may be a lost cause. I thought I had several tapes of family talking, but I can't find them; otherwise, I have no use for it.

How about that! I found the tapes. AudioKarma still isn't allowing me to register. Any other such web forums?
