Diese Maschine ist äußerst selten und muß, als sie noch hergestellt wurde (1982), etwa 14.000 DM gekostet haben. Bei ebay habe ich sie in all den Jahren bisher drei mal gesehen. Mittlerer Verkaufspreis über 5.500 €. Die Maschine kann die Bänder offenbar automatisch einmessen und läuft auch mit 76 cm/s. Weitere Daten fehlen mir leider.
