  • The Emi corder SM-205TW is a spring-wound motor driven tape recorder using a 5 transistor circuit board powered by a standard 9 V dry battery block.

    It has a ridged capstan drive, directly mounted on the motor shaft, and uses a flyweight governor to maintain a speed of 3 ¾  inches per second. The recorder is fitted with a combined playback / recording head and a DC eraser head, with no provisions for HF biasing and erasure.

    A connection to the British EMI company as suggested by the model name does not exist.

By its price tag of $15, this tape recorder was cleary positioned as a toy. For a professional recorder (like the Magnemite) you had to pay ten times as much, meaning more that a month’s income at that time. On the other hand the SM-205 TW was good enough for reasonable quality voice recording.

The previous owner of this item that is part of my collection now told me its history. The parents of a US soldier stationed in one of the East Asian war theatres (most probably Korea) stayed in contact with their son by exchanging ‘audio postcards’ recorded on the small 3” reels via the Army Postal Service.

Unfortunately, none of these original recordings have survived.
