Default Dynatron Tape to Tape - Help Needed

Hi
I wonder if there are any experts here that can help me. My father in law passed away last year and this Dynatron reel to reel was in his home.

There are several tapes that we believe have recordings of his sons and daughters on and it would be great to be able to hear them.

I know nothing about these machines so please bear with me.

I managed to power it up and plugged in some headphones. I then popped one of the reels on and pressed play. The reels spin but there is no sound. Tried another tape and it was just the same.

I posted this on another forum and someone pointed out that I had the headphones plugged into the microphone socket! I now realise that there is a speaker outlet at the rear and I will set it up this week with a Marshall amp and try again.

Before I go any further with this I would appreciate any help out there.

Many thanks in advance.
