Integrated stereo & autoreverse recording capability, either from radio tuner or from external microphone. 6 hours continuous tape playback with the 600 mAh. Battery alone / 3 hours of stereo radio recording. Worldwide integrated PLL tuner with STATION PRESET MEMORY with auto scanner (dedicated button for autoscan). Very good frequency response interval for playback -> 30 – 18 kHz. 100 -> 8k Hz recoding frequency interval (focused on voice, radio stereo music sounds pretty decent tough), automatic recording level, only type I tapes.

Equipped with Mega Bass in two steps. 2 songs AMS with adjustable sensitivity. Clock function with remote display. Timer function for making automated recordings at a desired time. The unit is refurbished meaning complete disassembly, deep cleaning of all components and chassis. New oil for all plastic to metal & metal to metal friction points (capstans, gears, motor), v aseline on hinges and door guides. New rubber belt fitted. Exhaustive clean of all the belt grooves / guidance to reduce flutter to a minimum. Deep clean of the pinch rollers (change was not required) and soak in rubber conditioner fluid for 24 hours.

Tape path checked with SONY MC-112C mirror cassette. Speed checked and adjusted TEAC test tape MTT-211NA. Demagnetized with TDKSony HE-3. Recording tests (mic & tuner), perfect. Replaced the CR2016 coin battery with new one. Upgraded the micro-plug connector on the remote with a flexible and modern 3,5 mm one providing extensive flexibility to use the headphones of choice. Tested several hours with various tape types and brands, working perfectly. Main body (printed user documentation is included). RM-WM71GL remote assembly with upgraded stereo connector (standard one is available as a choice). One OEM rechargeable battery 1450 mAh that still works but obviously holds a lower charge.
