   Nice job, Frank!  What voices will be on the initial tape frame?
 
   It just dawned on me: we are truely part of an elite group.  Just the mention of the number "35" will make our backs ache!

The tape heads look to be in excellent condition. They were manufactured by Michigan Magnetics, who are still in business. Their web site claims that they make two and four track tape heads, so I imagine that comparable products may be had. I also imagine that their head technology has advanced since then. There are no descriptions or prices on their web site. It says that you have to contact "sales" to for product information and data sheets.
 

generic replacement available that would work?
