That is a 1/4-inch stereo tape with two half-width tracks containing
a stereo signal (or two mono signals) in only one direction; the tape
has but one "side." Playing the tape from tail to head results in
reversed audio. This is as opposed to a full-track tape with one mono
signal in only one direction, a half-track tape which has one mono
signal in each direction, or a quarter-track tape with one stereo
signal (or two mono signals) in each direction.
Take care,
Joe
