Hi Guys,
A pretty sweet Pioneer RT-909 arrived at my place this weekend all the way from Arizona. My Mom gets the credit for finding this gem along with several low play, 10 inch reels of Ampex 236, Maxell UD, and Scotch 207 and a box of low quality 7 inch reels.
The capstan rollers were like tar so it took several hours to clean that mess. Ordered new rollers and a belt this morning so should be working shortly. The left foot is partly broke but everything else is in nice shape.
Doing the happy dance today!
Robert
