Sorry, Charlie, the other alternative is the way to go. Otherwise you are
much too likely to get the dolby tracking messed up. You would need to
ensure that playback and record processes wre both flat and produced the
same levels in the second machine <on the tape> that the original tape
had. In general, machines will not do this without special tweaking.  If you
miss, the error introduced is worse than two chances at a little mistracking
you get by encoding/decoding twice.
