Hello all,
I'm trying to realign this VHS vcr head without any special
equipment. It has three adjustment screws,each on springs.
One in the front, to control the front height, and two at
the back (like a triangular arrangement) to control the
back height / azimuth angle.
I don't think it's critical, not using the mono
sound track.
A problem I'm observing is the 2 to 3 inches of tape
between this head, and the rightmost roller guide.
As the tape is playing, there is not even tension on the tape,
visible here as an occasional "flap" of the tape on the top edge.
The bottom edge of the tape is tight but the top is
comparatively loose.
Not sure if this due to this heads alignment, or possibly
a worn switch roller.
Any tips appreciated.
Dave
