[sdiy] Mag tape splicing tape Q

[elmacaco]

yup,  I just got some 1/4" tape and splicing tape from radio shack.

I hear that it won't be stocked in the future, so some stores may not have
it.  and don't believe them if they say the don't have it, most of them
don't know and just say no.

have them look it up in the catalog and check their computer stock.

also, uh, what's a demagnetizer?
