Re: arsclist Telefunken Magnetic Recording Discs

["Richard L. Hess" <arclists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Were these program quality or dictation quality discs (if you know)?

Reason I'm asking is that in the same time frame, Ampex made the "cue mat" 
machine which used an approximately 12-inch disc made essentially of thick 
magnetic tape (no sleeve like we would later see on 8-inch (and 14 inch) 
"floppy" discs).

I'm wondering if the cue mat machine (which I don't have) would play these...
