Default Old tape recorder purchase.

Hello everyone. . I've bought a Vortexion WVB for what I think is a good price. I'm very excited as I've wanted one of these for years. I think £125 is a bargain. Cosmetically it is in very good nick. The seller hasnt tested it as no Bulgin lead. I managed to procure one though from work. (sorry to Peter_sol who sent me one thru the post - I never received it. )

I'm really looking forward to trying it out esp. the echo and monitoring capabilities.
Does anyone else have this model of Vortexion? How is it? Can one still buy or d'load the manual?

Yeah its a bummer Peter. What the hell must have happened. Our Postman is always really good so it must have been in transit they went AWOL.
