Now that all potentiometers are set, the tape deck records perfectly on all the tapes I have. I used a Maxell CrO2 tape to set the bias, so that is my baseline. I also have some Sony Fe2O3 (standard) tapes, which need the external bias knob turned to about the 2:00 o'clock position for best results. That's pretty good, 'cause full scale is 5:00 o'clock. I think I can expect most tapes to work well with the adjustments I've made.
