Stuzzi Memocord 304 B (304B). These
pocket recorders were made in the early 60s in Austria at the factory Radiotechnische Fabrik, Wien
15. Among such devices at the time they are allocated
large enough recording time for small size and simple
structure, kinematics. At the coil diameter of 42 mm can
be made up to 1 hour recording, four tracks of 15
minutes. Tape width 1/4 inches. Every 6 cm on the tape
are printed three-digit number from 000 to 500, which
help to find the right place record. To switch between the tracks is the lever with
the scenes, through which the head is moved to one of
four provisions in height. After recording 1 track
should move the lever to position 2. This coil change
the direction of rotation, and is recorded on the second
track, and so on. Rewind to the recorder is not
provided. Universal and two erase head move with the
lever to the left and right so that when recording
tracks 1 and 3 has one erase head, and when recording
tracks 2 and 4 - other. Erase head present (no permanent
magnets). At the edge of the shell is SLIDERS speed of
the engine, and jack for connecting the pedal remote
turn. Control modes, two buttons, white - playing, red -
the record. Record Button has a retainer in the form of
metal brackets, clinging to the edge case. At the front
of the recorder is sound - the microphone and jack (2,5
mm jack) for connecting an external headset or a
microphone. Kinematics of simple, its principle is well
understood, if you look at the photos. Wiring is also
simple, collected at three germanium transistors type
OC75 (2 pieces) and OC72 (1 item). As a built-in speaker
- microphone using a dynamic capsule impedance 8 ohms.
Recorder dimensions 115 x 80 x 37 mm (without protruding
parts). Weight 280 g. Power motor 1,5 v, AA batteries.
Power wiring 9 V, battery PP3.
The device was bought in good condition, but a
failure. After cleaning the battery compartment contacts
kinematics earned, and power also proved to be
serviceable. Was faulty universal head, in its winding
cliffs.

To
switch between the tracks is the lever with the scenes,
through which the head is moved to one of four
provisions in height. Above the lever is a window
through which visible markings on the tape.
The red record button
has a lock with a metal bracket, clinging to the edge
case.
Contact the battery
compartment suffered greatly from flowed batteries. In
the photo on the right oxidized contacts, as they were
when the vehicle hit me. In other photo seen peeled
contacts.
To restore functionality necessary to
replace the universal head. Size head came from a
cassette deck with a small refinement design
The battery compartment
is designed for two batteries. First, insert a battery
1,5 v AA, and above it is located 9 v battery type PP3.
Set of reels with
magnetic tape in the original plastic box.
