Hi to all, I updated the page about the #RevoxB77 mk II on my home site. I studyed the effect of the popular mod that consists in replacing the original fixed roller on the right tape guide with a ball bearing. The results seem marginally better with the original factory configuration, though.

what about needle bearings? I am unsure how they might fare but has it been tried?
in reply to The Turtle

@the_turtle it may be an idea, however I don’t know if the benefit comes from a slightly increased friction that somehow dampens the small variations of speed more than the bearing.
in reply to Davide Bucci

I checked the azimuth with the same 16kHz signal and the oscilloscope and the phases are rock solid with the fixed roller rather the ball bearing in the left tape guide. That is a clear win for the factory configuration. #RevoxB77 #AnalogAudio #MagneticRecording #ReelToReel #HiFi #Tape


“It’s troubling that companies are making a product that by design is taking biometric information from people who are doing the innocent act of walking onto a porch,” EFF’s @Adam_D_Schwartz told the Washington Post. washingtonpost.com/technology/…

Here's an alt-text description of the image:

This is the cover of a science fiction book titled “Side Hustle Tango: Book 2 of The Grand Human Empire”. The artwork features two figures standing in a futuristic, metallic corridor with blue lighting. The figure on the left is partially obscured, appearing to be in motion and wearing dark clothing, while the figure on the right is facing forward with bright blue hair and a technologically advanced wrist device. The title “Side Hustle Tango” is prominently displayed in large, stylized letters with a gradient effect, and beneath it reads "Book 2 of The Grand Human Empire" in smaller font. The name "JOHN WILKER" is positioned at the top of the image, and the entire scene evokes a sense of action and adventure within a space opera setting.

"There are some 1,200 rural communities across Canada that have no bank branch or credit union, but they do have a post office. First Nations communities are also poorly served by banks, notes John Anderson, author of “Why Canada Needs Postal Banking.”

The image is a black background with white text and a small logo in the bottom left corner. The text reads "STAY AWARE STAY ALERT BE VIGILANT" in large, bold letters. Below that, it states "REPORT ACTIVITY DIRECTLY FROM YOUR PHONE AT STOPICE.NET". At the bottom of the image, the text reads “TEXT “JOIN” TO 877-322-2299 TO GET ALERTS” and “TEXT “REPORT” TO SEND AN ALERT”. In the bottom left corner, there is a circular logo with a curved line through it, and the text “STOPICE.NET” underneath.
