MKII tape changing

MKII tape changing

2002-11-15 by Robert and Suzanne Young

The cycling glitch that MKII #118 developed following a tape change
operation has resolved. The Streetly chaps kindly provided another
synch tape that cured the problem immediately. MKII #118 is now fully
functional with its original leads on the RH keyboard and a wonderful
array of new Streetly sounds on the LH keyboard. Thanks to all who
provided suggestions and comments. Hats off to Ken Merbler for the
photo-documentation of the process on his machine.

Its great to again have automated cycling. For awhile there I was afraid
my forearms were going to look like something out of a Popeye cartoon.

That's all folks (oops, wrong cartoon)
