When you
say "10 hour recorder", is that the
total recording time? |
| |
Yes,
this is the total time for both sides of the
cassette; after five hours the recorder
automatically stops, you flip the cassette over
and press the record button for another five
hours of recording |
| |

What
type of cassette does the 10 hour recorder use? |
| |
A
standard 120 minute cassette. |

When I
record on a 10 hour recorder, can I play the tape
back on my car cassette player? |
| |
Since
the 10 hour recorder runs at a very slow speed,
you need to use a 10 hour recorder for playback.
You can play the Viking
recorder in a car using batteries or the 12 Volt DC option which allows you to power the recorder
from the car's cigaret lighter. |

I need
to record off my scanner, automatically, while I
am away. What type of recorder do I need? How do
I hook it up to my scanner? |
| |
In most
cases, you need a voice-activated long play
recorder. We have applications literature that
discusses recording from scanners and other
receivers. GO
THERE? |

I need
to record all of my phone calls, no matter what
phone in my house is in use. I want all my calls
to be recorded automatically whenever I make a
call. What do you suggest? |
| |
You will
need a voice-activated long play recorder and a
telephone line interface. For a single line home
phone you need the TA 100 interface. We have
applications literature that discusses all
aspects of recording your calls from your home or
from your office. GO
THERE? |

I have
listened to some awful-sounding long play
recorders that were Panasonic/GE/Sony recorders
modified for long play operation. How are your professional
recorders different? |
| |
Yes,
some companies buy these low-cost, consumer-grade
recorders for $20 wholesale, do a "quick
& dirty" modification on them and sell
them for $200 - or more! Unfortunately, these
modifications lead to very poor audio quality,
these machines sound so "muddy" as to
be almost unintelligible. Viking International
recorders are heavy-duty, commercial machines.
Since 1971, our "prime directive" has
been that our recorders MUST be the best-sounding,
and if you look at our list of happy customers
you will realize that some of these users can not
AFFORD to buy anything but the BEST. Also, see
the review of our recorders in the April 1996
issue of Popular Communications. |
