Default Re: Grundig TK20 and Truvox R82. Help Required Please.

Of course any slight slow running at the beginning of a reel will probably be much worse towards the end of the reel because of the increased back tension and the decreased take up tension. It's good to test capstan drive at the end of the reel because with most domestic machines that's the hardest test to pass.
