It plays previously recorded tapes fine, and naturally I've tried recording on more than one tape since then. Questions: 1. Out of morbid curiousity, could anyone hazard a guess as to what's wrong? 2. My venerable years-old Zenith worked like a top for several years after I bought it. I can still shell out $30 and get a contract covering a year's parts and labor for the new Sony; I guess that's the thing to do if these newer machines are really trouble prone? Karen
