AFAIK the F7 can take 10.5” NAB spools. Ferrograph even made a “cine” to Nab adaptor.

8 3/4 won't fit the standard 7. The Super 7 and Logic 7 both take NABs.

Re: Ferrograph Series 7 Maximum Spool Size
Ahh. I knew I had seen an F7 with NABs & thinking about it it was a Super Seven( although a Revox of the same period was even super-er)
