Hi Gang,

This is a question from someone about to buy an alinement tape for his Ta@#$% MS-16 1inch 16track.

Does anyone have one and willing to hire it out???

I know its only $260us to get a 4 minute tape with 4 tones on it. I guess its not that much but christmas has emptied the penny jar.

Another question if I decide to buy.

What tape should I get?

The 250 nWb/m or the 350 nWb/m? It will be 15 in/s if that makes any difference

Thanks in advance

Jason

The MRL tapes listed on JRFMagnetics site are $470US.

Probably go for either the 320nWb/m which is available for either 7 and 15 ips or the 350nWb/m which is 15 ips only.

You can buy short MRL tapes here, much less expensive:
