Re: [HCDX] DAT and Minidisc

Is this only one tested??  Is the RF problem go with most models?  I have a
rather expensive Sony tape deck that puts out some nasty RF and no longer
can use it on dxpeditions.  I got burnt big time.
Interesting comment on the Sony connectors.  The same problem occured on
several receivers made by Sony, SW 100 comes to mind.  WD 40 works well.
One drop is all you need.
