PURPOSE: To attain the reproduction of a message only recorded at the reproduction of preceding remote control and succeeding, by performing recording while sectioning a signal with a marker signal at each message, and recording a marker signal longer than the preceding marker signal after the remote control reproduction at the second remote control reproduction.

CONSTITUTION: When a remote control reproducing signal is transmitted again, a message tape 16 is rewound. Suppose that Mn, Sn are recorded after the preceding remote control reproduction. When the tape is rewound to a position finished for the preceding remote control reproduction, a marker signal SP recorded for 20sec is detected at a marker signal detecting circuit 6. A timer 7 started in this case counts 1 or 2sec and gives a signal to a processor 17. The processor 17 discriminates that the position is a position finished for the reproduction at the preceding remote conrol operation, the rewinding is stopped at the marker signal SP, and only the business message Mn recorded at the preceding remote control reproduction and succeeding is reproduced.
