New video! I'm trying to fix the stuck tape transport in a Philips N4416 reel to reel from 1972.

@Rycochet Haha, indeed! I found instructions to actually use one of these as a datasette in an old magazine some time ago, maybe I'll give that a try eventually for real. :D

@janbeta You definitely need to! Shame the TI-99/4A wasn't bigger in Europe, that reel to reel would look amazing paired with the brushed metal case version, with the built in cupholder.

@Rycochet I have one of those, too. They were quite popular here for a very brief period when they were heavily discounted due to the price war with Commodore. Would be a good match indeed! :D
