[sdiy] tapehead stuff

[epeasant at telusplanet.net]

Hello Arun,

Working with tape heads for recording can be a little 
tricky, with tuned circuits and bias oscillators/levels. I 
find it a lot easier to find some scrap/surplus tape 
circuitry designed for the actual heads being used and 
modify it for my application rather than trying to DIY it 
from scratch.

Take care,
Doug
