1963 Ampex VR-1500 how to "thread"
How do I "thread" the 2" tape on an Ampex helical scan unit?
I have tested everything on this and everything works, but I haven't tried to play the tape that came with it... nor have I tried to hook a camera to it or record anything from t.v. Anyone know anything about this? It is in the classifieds also... |
Here is how my similar 660 threads :

Thanks! I might actually get to test mine now...

I gave away 2 of those to a museum here in Idaho last year including over 300 tapes of Tv shows and local commercials from our CBS affiliate. I also gave them a 1947 B&W studio camera

Jr...is that a right to left tape path? Looks like it from the labels on the right reel but I am confused by the pinch roller being the first thing in the path.
