    I'm still using my hitachi stereo cassette recorder TRK 924OE at work . The cassette doesn't work the FM very well but I've hooked it up to a DAB radio via the cassette deck and it still sounds great and loud

    I´ve bought my first TRK 9140E in July 1980. Now I ´ve to replace the counter belt and the capstan belt. Even the idler must be replaced and the source switch has to be cleaned, - Very nice machine.
