Omph,
Its close enough to the Early HP detachable cord and yes if thats
done (could not scream nooo loud or fast enough) the result is
both load and spectacular.
And, the machine and cord get thrown into a box in the back of a closet.
Eventually, somebody else gets it, and sees that it has a cord, . . .
I have a crate of 8" used and a box or two of
NIB. They seem
to last if they don't say noname or Memorex blackwatch ;)
I use them more for RX01/02.
Price these days is probably similar to what it was 45 years, ago. And
availability is heading towards what it was 50 years ago.
