Victor,
thanks for the info, not knowing much about the R2R world, I didn't know about SSS. I do not have any new tape, as this came with some older tape I think it's 3M. I assume, even if left in its container, SSS could still occur if it's old. I know it has to be at least 12 years or older.
I do not have any new tape ATM. I am guessing there is no way to eliminate this possibility until I get some.
Pulley's wheels and tape head are clean and free moving, and cleaned the heads. The heads had some minor grime when I cleaned with alcohol, nothing unexpected.
Is there anything else that could be gleaned from the videos I have the link to?
again much appreciated
