Description
With a reel diameter of just 42 mm (1.6″), recordings of up to one hour were possible with this very small, hand-held recorder. Four mono tracks were available for recording (there were four head positions and each consecutive position reversed the tape direction). There was no rewind.
A 3-digit number (between 000 & 500) appeared every 6 cm on the back of the tape and was displayed in a small window which facilitated location of program material.
The microphone doubled as the speaker and there was an internal 20 milliwatt amplifier.
The tape speed was rim-drive and varied with an average of 1¼ ips (3.3cm/s).
The battery compartment was designed for two batteries – A 1.5 motor battery sat below the 9V amplifier battery (visible in the right hand corner in picture at left)
