This is a little project I did on VTR #6 late summer 2013. It had some sort of intermittant problem with the take-up reel motor going full-on torque at times. The chassis is  a -05 that had been field updated to a -07 by adding a second set of torque pots for play mode. Therein was the problem...
   It wasn't the modification itself, but the way it was implemented that led to the intermittant gremlins.
