Oh, what are you talking about! +/- it simply switched the loading speed from the tape recorder,
by the way, this feature was made so that it was possible to load from a tape
recording made at the second speed. And on my specsie there was a natural
switch and all the games ran at double speed! Well, really, no one had a
two-speed spexy?
