That's highly unlikely to be the case here It at least 7 days between writes, we have Mon-Thurs and Fri1-5 tapes, daily tape (eg monday) starts writing at 9:30pm and usually finishes around 0030 the next morning. It is not written to again until the next monday. The friday tapes are recycled every 5 weeks and exhibit the same issue. -- Harondel J.
