Be aware that this deck does not have true IEC EQ (needed for the Tape Project tape). The EQ switch on the front panel only changes the high frequency EQ to IEC. The bass EQ stays at NAB, which means 50 Hz with be down 3 db. There is a circuit mod to make bass flat (IEC)
Also be aware that you deck very likely has leaking capacitors. Very common in this series due to age. A full re-cap is recommended.
All pots and switches in the deck will need to be cleaned if that has not been done recently.
