TCR frame?  The Youtube video isn't quite good enough to see the 
detail.  I guess I need to go to Boston and see Paul's machine in 
action!

		I answer:

	There was a nylon block attached to the top of the female guide.  It's 
hard to see in the video, but it's sorta visible at 3:10.  A closeup of 
the video head is shown as the tape is removed.  The audio head stack 
is tapered at the top to allow the tape to slide into position.  As I 
recall, this is actually the same audio head stack as was used on the 
TR-70.  The rest of the details I don't remember.
