On second thought, since it was a Tandberg, it might have been 50 cycles.

Tandberg advertisement, High Fidelity, August 1963:
"Several years ago, Thor Solberg, a Norwegian sailor, crossed the
Atlantic
in
an authentically duplicated version of an ancient Norwegian 'Dragon'
ship.
Daily reports of the crossing were made on a Tandberg Tape Recorder.
Despite
the sea air and motion, the Tandberg faithfully recorded the comments of
this
modern Norse adventurer and represented an accurate log of the voyage.
*Power
was derived from batteries and a vibrator.*"

For the younger members on the list, a vibrator provided 60 cycle AC from
the 6 vDC batteries, used for car radios 'in the good old days'. I'll bet
they didn't run the recorder long during each log.
