Default Any hope for a 40 year old tape reel?

Not at 1 7/8ths IPS...



But there is software which will do the conversion, because I once did
it.


Why bother since 1 7/8 ips machines exist? Also, if it's a decent
recording, running it through a machine at double speed will remove some
of the treble due to the head gap extinction frequency. And no software
can recover that.
