There must be a small issue.It might be the drive belt or tape deck might be picking up some noise.
Make sure your mobile phone and the WIFI router is away from the datasette.

Do you know exact sizes of 1530 and 1531 belts?

0.80mm X 1.2mm

I put new belts to both the 1530 and 1531, used an usb extension to move away both the 1530usb and the datasettes from the pc and smartphones. No way, still can't get a working tape.

Actually I made another test. I tried to record Antiriad and Ghosts'n'Goblins one after the other. Antiriad doesn't work, GNG does. This Antiriad tap seems very problematic. Can you test with on your end ?

Remzi:




I recorded that TAP file to a tape and tried it on real hardware.No problemo.
If you get some games working some games don't,you might have a partially failed CPU or PLA chip.

I had a similar problem with a PLA chip I bought from ebay.
