paid 3,500.00 brand new, and I sent to Brazil,  good times...

> I have a brand new Cipher Model 920 9-track tape drive that needs a new

> pinouts.  It also comes with a complete set of documentation and schematics.
>  From the picture below, you can see that it is still in the original
> shipping frame with all of the protective paper still on the plexiglass.
