    TEAC Auto-Reverse W-518r Question

    Greetings - question about this deck. Mine works fine, but I don't know if the left cassette well is supposed to stop after a cycle of Side1-to-Side2 play. Mine plays continuously with no shut-off after Side 2. I see no switch that typical auto-reverse decks have, for single-side play...
