A Continuous-Loop Magnetic-Tape Magazine and its Applications

Louis G. Mackenzie

Design and operation of an endless-loop $\frac{1}{4}$-in. magnetic-tape magazine with uniform low-friction tape motion and a five-channel selective program repeater are described. Features include high-speed solenoid actuation for instantaneously cued stop-start operation, and transistorized audio and control circuitry. Applications are discussed.
