Help with a Sony Test Tape S-2-A060A Azimuth 6.3KHz

[razzmatazz]

Hi all,

Wondering if can help, my father used to own an electrical store and I had found this item.

I have a Sony Test Tape, below information on the tape. It looks new in case.

Sony test tape S-2-A060A Azimuth Alignment 6.3KHz 26Y91X

Wondering what exactly it is and if worth anything, seems to be specialised now and can't find anything online?

Regards

i think its used to adjust the tape head azimuth alignment either by measuring a voltage at the o/p or by seeing the Lisajous patterns in an oscilloscope. These can be used only with the specific model tape deck for alignment.

Thanks Hari, will look into it more.

yes, it does not look like a regular compact cassette, much smaller
