    I am lucky enough to have an Orrtronics player, but, unfortunately, I do not have an Orrtronics tape with which to test is. Does anyone have an Orrtronics tape cartridge you can spare?

    Thank you!

    Hello Fredric, all I can find about Orrtroncs is that they made 8-track players in the 60's, have you tried an 8-track?

    Yes, I know they did. But first, they produced a unit which played the Cousino tape, in 1961. They even offered one for cars in 1963, all monaural. When they did not take off, they switched to 8-track. The early version is very rare, and I am glad to have the player, in what looks like mint condition. But I would really like to get hold of one of the tapes in order to test it.

    I haven't watched this since it came out, maybe he's got one?

    I wrote to him, but he did not respond.
