In a different city someone has a few Sony MZ B10's they will sell. The also have a few units (MZ B10's) where the record button won't stay down and will sell very cheap.

I already have one of these units and know of some occasions where this happens. (if disc is "locked" , if "hold is activated or if disc is full).

As seller is testing all at same time, I can only assume they're using same disc (unlocked), and assume they're turning "hold" off on all machines.

Does anyone know any other reasons record button won't stay down?

This also sometimes happens with my B10, but I can't quite work out why. Even when the TOC is written, there's plenty of space left on the disc, hold off etc. I can 'cure' it by some indeterminate combination of Stop, Forward, Back, open lid etc. Seems to be OK when using Pause during recording, but otherwise fairly annoying, and probably a design fault. Luckily I use it mostly for playback, and record with other units.

Of course if there are some B10's where the record button never stays down, that's even worse...
