Ive acquired an RT-909 reel to reel.
It is in nice cosmetic condition. I've checked the voltage setting and fuse and it powered up first time. All good.....
However, having set up a pre-recorded 7" reel none of the buttons work. I've read the instructions as best I can (they are a bit blurred) and took all the steps in the guide such as ensuring both reels are same size; that the timer button is switched off; it is on the correct speed and reel size..... But still None of the buttons light up and none are functioning.
Any tips on what to look for?
If anyone else has one of these I could also do with a close up photo of how to spool the tape around the right wheels etc. again the instruction manual isn't that clear
I'll ask a separate question/thread re leader tape
