Yeah, I thought of that, but the problem is, being blind I need to listen to
them to find out exactly which items to save. Also I'd really only consider
that if a tape needed salvage treatment. I'm not talking about super
historical items here you know!

Is there any company who can get things like Tandberg 3341 type decks up
and running which have belt and clutch problems etc. The knobs fell to
bits as well, but that is superficial.
I have some tapes I want to try to rescue. Or is it better to buy some
other machine already working?

Depending upon the number of tapes you have to "rescue", you might
find it better to send these to a professional transcrption service. They
will have tape machines with a better performance than you can ever
hope to achieve on your Tandberg 3341

Google brings up a large number of firms. Example
