	Indeed, switching to a single channel led to an instant
	improvement!  Still, there's way too much unreadable blocks, but
	at the least, the headers seem to be recognized now.

	Re. the analog vs. digital: I'm trying to get the "best"
	digitization in the least number of tries (so to minimize the
	wear.)  Unfortunately, there's a little chance that I could get
	some Hi-Fi equipment for the analog part of the processing (why,
	it was a considerable luck that I was able to find /any/
	cassette player these days; and then, I've already had to repair
	it after less than a hour of use.)

	I could probably try my luck at adjusting the head (or checking
	the electronics; say, for dried electrolytic capacitors) given a
	"test" cassette with some known signal recorded.  But there's a
	little hope that I could find one, or that I could record it
	myself.

	Thus, digital processing seems like my only hope.
