Recording and Dubbing
You can record from any component connected to the receiver/amplifier
or dub (copy) cassette tapes.
Notes:
• Tape quality greatly affects the quality of the recording. Your cas-
sette deck can play Type I, Type II, and Type IV tape. We recom-
mend Radio Shack brand tapes.
• Before recording or dubbing, be sure the cassettes onto which you
want to record or dub have their erase-protection tabs in place. To
prevent accidental erasure of a tape, remove the erase-protection
tabs. For more information, see “Erase-Protection Tabs.”
• To record at the beginning of a cassette, turn the cassette’s hub
with your finger or a pencil until the dark part of the tape enters
the opening in the edge of the cassette. Before dubbing, position
both tapes this way to prevent missing recording material at the
very beginning of a tape.
