A company in Germany sells the last of the Uher 4000 Report Monitor AV Reel to Reel recorders. I bought one. Here's my video about it.
Here's their website https://www.sds-consult.de/UHER/index...

*Information correct on 20 August 2020

The microphone model is Uher M 534 A

The set I ordered is listed as 1426AFR - note that it doesn’t come with any take-up spool, I owned those already.

UPDATES & ADDENDUMS
- Ignore my slight confusion over the power lead orientation - I can now see that it can only connect one way round. Those DIN plug pins and sockets are a lot clearer on the camera footage than from my old eyes.
- One feature not demonstrated in the video - The external power supply shown can be located inside the battery compartment in place of any batteries and the attached power lead routed through a cut-out in the case.
