Subject: RE: Rescuing old analogue tapes (1/4 inch)
All this reminds me of similar problems that also existed during the age of 8-Tracks & cassettes.
The glue used for the pressure pads [both 8T & CAS] and splicing the endless loop [8-Track] often caused problems.
And on 8-track player/recorders, the [rubber? drive belt] often stretched out of shape.
