I have a problem with my ZX81. The `load' command doesn't work
but the `save' command does. I have tried using new batteries on 
the cassette recorder, various volume levels, and even different
cassette recorders to test out my assumption that
the cassette recorder is not the problem. (different tapes too!)
The symptoms are:
I type `load' and the screen either goes grey or else a random black
and white pattern continues indefinitely. Any ideas or similar
experiences?
