Whatever you do, DO NOT wind it on an AVR-1 or AVR-3. The loose
pack <BR>will confuse the vacuum tensioners in the AVR-1 or the
mechanical <BR>tensioners in the AVR-3, which could result in tape
damage.<BR> Wind the tape SLOWLY on a good ol' VR-2000 or
VR-1200. An AVR-2 <BR>would probably be OK too. After
completely winding the tape in one <BR>direction, remove the tape from
the original reel and clean the empty <BR>reel thoroughly with the
vacuum cleaner. Wipe the reel with a <BR>slightly damp cloth both
inside and out (NOT paper towel; that would <BR>leave paper debris), let
dry, then wind the tape back onto the reel <BR>again.<BR><BR>
