I was wondering if there is such a tape, I have chosen to make a test tape
on a friends sterio, various freq. switching between various channels.
But to adjust the tape head there is usually one of the screws that has a
spring and a washer under it. the head it pivoted on the other, fixed screw.
I think there are ones that have both screws adjustable.
