I think it may be a good idea not to use the word "pots" to refer to potentiometers, at least not without explanation; a person without above-average knowledge of electronic components would be likely clueless about its meaning. Maybe "knobs" or "dials"? Ransack (talk) 12:10, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Would it be out of scope to capture expertise on the Nagra (use, troubleshooting, tips and tricks, good/bad tape stock, ...) here? It's a great machine but it seems like the knowledge base is vanishing pretty quickly. Kurcules 19:12, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] White House recordings on Nagra

Does anybody have any details on the history and/or current status of the standard use of Nagra decks to record spoken word at events where the President of the US took/takes part? It would be interesting to include such info along with other common uses. Binksternet 21:26, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
