Default Otari MTR-15 tape alignment

Hello to all,
I have an Otari MTR-15 tape deck and i do not know how to use its alignment controls for recording parameters ( as it is full auto or manual and or semi auto) .
Thanx for your input,
Kamran
Best

Check out tapeheads.net here http://tapeheads.net/index.php - they should be able to answer this question.. Note the URL is very specific and there are others with almost identical URLs which are not the forum.. Odd..

So lets see, it runs about $5 to $35 to register a domain name, but once it lapses the hijackers want $2G's! (Does this mean around 1 out of 200 folks do that?)

Fortunately they were not around while I had to wait for my name to lapse, so I could use it!

I guess the web master only registered the one, the link I provided is valid, but I thought it more than a little odd that there were others..

I allowed my .com web address to expire years ago and a cyber squatter grabbed it and has been using it for years to make money on hifi related links because so many sites still point to the old URL.. I have a .net URL these days, but have given up trying to get people to update their links, it seems that a lot of sites are no longer that well maintained. The need for links is much less as well now due to good search engines like Google..

We're OT though, and should behave..

I placed an order through the site that used to be the biggest Mac dealer. Had to change my credit card number to get them to cancel the order after it was clear they weren't the same folks and wouldn't cancel an order they were "back ordered" on.

We've gone pretty OT for the OP's intent to get some information. The topic we have been discussing is amusing/interesting - perhaps I should split the thread and move the OT part to the Lounge? What do you guys think?
