Please can you tell me is it possible to get a replacement plug for Dictaphone Model 1740 and, if so, the cost. Thanks Olive Millar

Old batteries?? U have to clean more than just the head, all the rollers too.

Is there a pretty girl anywhere nearby?

This unit takes mini cassettes, not micro. A common issue with the playback on this model is the rubber tire on the drive reel cracks, causing it not to turn. It probably needs to be replaced.

It won't eject? Unit needs service. Cost, probably 65.00.

Hi,
Does the tape move when you press rewind or fast forward.
If the tape moves for a few seconds then bleeps it sound like a sensor problem.
If it only bleeps when the rewind and fast forward are pressed and the play is ok it sounds like the actuator motor is faulty,this motor enables the rewind and fast forward.
Hope this helps.

Hello make sure the Speed control at front is on center if yes when is hapening make sure that you press the play button on the unit wile this is hapening just unplug the pedal if the problem get fix playing, your unit with out foot control you need a foot pedal replacement if not sounds like a bad motor I'm senting a link for a replacement pedal and a service place in case you need to send your unit to repair http://www.tvps.com/Products/ECS-IN-585-Heavy-Duty-Foot-Pedal---Pre-Owned-IN585__ECS-P-IN-585.aspx

I have a headset looks new to me that I can sell to you. Bought a whole package only to find that it uses mini not micro cassettes.

Go to www.sewingpartsonline.com and order it for $29.95. They sell the universal model so it should be great. GOOD Luck

You'll need a digital recorder (Dictaphone makes one - a Walkabout Model 5220). Transferring a recording from an analog (tape) machine to a PC requires a patch cord to hook it up to your PC, then some sort of software to record it while it's playing back.
