(i.e. household appliances, power sources such as transformers and television
sets, etc.).
The cassette deck supplied with the TRS-80 is very compatible with the system
and will perform its duties with great success.
To
keep the cassette deck in top
condition and thus minimize your problems, you should periodically perform
some routine maintenance on
it. Dirty heads can cause as much as a 50% loss
of
volume. Also, heads become magnetized with use and may cause distortion.
We
recommend that you clean the head, capstan, and pinch roller after every four
hours
of
operation. Heads on new recorders should always be cleaned before
use.
Note:
Cassette cleaning and demagnetizing accessories are available from your
local Radio Shack store.
