All systems are go for launch!

That tape is marvelous, must make a note of that.

I thought it sounded good with the PeachFuzz, but it sounds amazing now - very authentic Apollo-era audio!

I did bench tech work on defective micro cassette tape drives manufactured for NASA at Braemar Computer Devices in the early 80s. Thanks for the reminiscence.

When you record with the headset, there's a high-frequency "sine wave"-like tone that is audible only when you are not speaking into the microphone. I wonder if that is the Zoom recorder itself when the compressor is wide open, or if it is picking something else up in the lab?

Nice job, that's amazing tape!

Great job! I use a lot of that self-sealing rubber tape on aircraft wiring bundles. It's really amazing stuff! I've seen it used on the handle on baseball bats and wrapped around the control stick of a Blue Angels F-18. Never saw that before, but I guess with the extreme maneuvers they make they need the best gloved hand-to-grip surface possible. I like the way you stripped the impedance adapter and just used the internal transformer. A lot of people would not go that trouble. The copper foil tape is also invaluable. Especially around stuff like your fluorescent light, as you showed. I've had to use it a lot near electronics noise makers like power inverters, motors, light fixtures, etc. It's amazing stuff! I think I would have done exactly what you had done. I love watching your problem solving abilities!
