seeking quality tape recorder

[Mike Stein]

Not all recorders work equally well, especially 
with Commodore computers which use custom 
recorders and a sort-of-digital semi-square wave 
instead of 'normal' audio sine waves.

A better quality recorder does not necessarily 
translate into a better chance of successful 
recordings.
