    I bid on it Al but my max was £10 too low so didnt win it
    I'm not bothered as I have 6 of them anyway but it looked like it might go cheep at one stage so I put a bid on it just in case

    Nice one Alan. Looks like you’re cornering the market on these. :-)

    When I didn't win it the first time round I was thinking good why would I want another one anyway
    But then I got a second chance offer I couldn't say no
    Have to learn to sit on my hands as Cas says

    Well should have sat on my hands as this one didnt work when I got it home LOL
    None of the lights come on and no tape functions worked
    Ive been working on it and I have managed to get it functional but there is still a ground fault which I haven't solved yet but Ill find the fault eventually
    Anyway its cleaned up nice and should be a very nice machine, it actually sounds excellent playing back some of my own tapes so must be in pretty good alignment as is.
