8-Track Tapes Question?

I am getting into 8-track collecting. I have a Panasonic 8-track player. When I play some of my tape I here two programs at the same time. I want to make good MP3s for my iPod. Any way to fix this? If it is a player problem I will need exact instructions on what to look for. I have never taken a player apart before.

Answers:

The problem is that the player heads are not aligning correctly. There may be several ways to fix this. Placing a matchbook or several layers of folded paper under the exposed end of the cassette and forcing it in a bit might fix this. You may have to try several positions and depths before you find the right place to put it.

Adjusting the players heads may be an option if you feel competent to take the player apart, or you might find a repairman that could do this.

I once had a player with a perpetually serious alignment problem that I completely cured by turning the player upside down.
