That's all good stuff Alan,esp. the oxide shedding problem,it causes archivists no end of problems. Bringing the tapes up to a warm room temperature slowly can help,but it's hit and miss and you would want to play the tape too many times. Anne..I have machines for all of the formats/speeds that Alan mentioned,but the fairly major problem is that I'm in Scotland! If David can't match the format of your tape,then perhaps he could locate the correct tape, it should be possible on any machine,but you might get one track playing backwards,it's a half track/quarter track problem. You could then post it to me and I could put it on to CD for you,a long way round I must admit but if needs be.... Whatever way you go ....good luck with it.
