Dear sfbp, yes, I am from Budapest. I know an older repairman but in an other city. He will check my deck soon and I will come back with the outcome 🙂

Ok, its clear 🙂

I've read this topic too, but my issue is not connected with the titling of the disk/tracks 😕 Nevertheless, I hope I dont need to dump my deck...

Dear forum members, I've got to my hand a MDS-JE500 MD deck from a first owner in quite good condition. Unfortunately as more I am playing/recording with it there comes randomly an error message while recording: Retry - Retry error. It means, at retry error it skips the current recording to a new separate track. It is really annoying and random. Sometimes a disk is written with max. 2 errors but sometimes with 10+. Following the repair manual I have made a recording test and the focus bias test, here the result was below the limitation: focus errors were below 20, namely 0-5 error/session. The heads are clean and dust free. The symptoms are present with used and new disk either. Any proposals or tips? Thank you!
