Viking Reel To Reel Tape Recorders
Viking Viking of Minneapolis, Inc. (Telex), 9600 Aldrich Ave. South, Minneapolis 20, Minnhere
1920's - 1969 (Telex to 1985) We believe Peter A. Rasmussen founded the Viking Tool & Machine Corporation in Belleville, NJ and first applied for its trademark on Wednesday, March 20, 1946. A U.S. federal trademark registration was filed for VIKING by VIKING TOOL & MACHINE CORPORATION, THE, . The USPTO has given the VIKING trademark serial number of 71498665. The current federal status of this trademark filing is EXPIRED. The VIKING trademark is filed in the category of Yarns and Thread . The description provided to the USPTO for VIKING is MES, MOLDS, AND TAPPING AND SCREW FORMING APPARATUS. In 1947 the Viking company was known for making the Minit Popcorn Machine (left) First Viking tape recorder ads were found in the 1957 Allied catalog and in magazine ads that also featured the Fidelipac Viking 35 Series tape cartridges (view ads below). 1964 Frank Garay is elected President of Viking of Minneapolis succeeding Peter A. Rasmussen In 1965 Viking produced the Studio 96 professional tape recorder (left). Viking was sold to Telex in 1966. Telex Communications, Tulsa, Oklahoma who had started out in 1936 making hearing aids
1967 Telex built a new 50,000 sq.ft. plant in Blue Earth, MN to assemble Viking tape recorders which were previously being built in Bloomington
Peter A. Rasmussen passed away in 1967 Billboard (Jan 7, 1967) announces that John S. Boyers (one of the founders of Magnecord) has been named by Telex Corp as Director of Engineering for the Telex Acoustics, Viking and Magnecord Taperecorder Divisions. In 1969 tape magazines list 6 Viking models including a Model 433.
From 1970 to 1975 the HiFi Stereo tape issues showed the same recorder as a Telex 433 tape recorder (4 track 3 speed, 3 motor, $324.95) and a Telex Lab Series 2001 reel tape recorder. It had 3 heads 2 motors, held 8.5 inch reels, 7.5 & 3.75, $725.00. Folks will recognize the Magnecord 1024 rebranded with Telex in this 1975 ad (left) The 1977 db magazine has an ad for the Telex 230 reel tape recorder. Turner microphones and Magnecord tape recorders were also brought under the Telex brand (right) The Viking models and ads: 1957 1958 1959 1960 1961 1962 1963 1964 Professional Viking Studio 96 1965 1966 1967 1968 1969 1972 1974 1975 Telex Magnecord 1977 1978 1979 1982 1983 1985 Additional Viking photos from contributors: Viking 75 Series Viking 95 Viking 96 - photos from Phillip Chance, Phillip Chance MD, MA, Emeritus Profesor

What are specs for TEAC A-3300SR? [links]
Vintage Ampex 7700 recorders are built with a wooden frame, and plastic and metal pieces are mounted on the main panel. This gadget has multiple knobs and two gauges that help users make strategic adjustments to impact sound frequencies. The meters on the panel can be reviewed in lowly lit environments because a UV light illuminates the gauges. An Ampex 7700 is worth considering because: here
TEAC, Akai, Nagra, and many other companies build reel-to-reel tape recorders, and each product typically has a unique design. These units are durable because metal materials are used to construct the frame. The process of using a reel-to-reel tape product is easy because many practical accessories for different units are available.
An Ampex tape for a reel-to-reel recorder is usually 10.5 inches, and the housing is made of metal. Ampex manufacturers typically package a standard tape in a convenient case.
