Is that a TC1 multi component tester but without a case? I ordered a TC1 last year to replace another that I burnt out. I think the landed cost from China to BC was $24 CAD.

I had to forward this to a friend. She knows my dog Milo really well and it fits him to a T.

A pirated bootleg from Indonesia, Malaysia etc. I had a Whitesnake cassette and a Belinda Carlisle cassette both from those areas. Intended markets were eastern countries. Big business at one time.

Army fatigue green.

There are microphone collectors (or hoarders). I knew one once, a long time ago.

Did not like it in '72 but my tastes changed, I like it mo' better now.

Thanks Don. That was a concern. My only concern actually. If oscillation does occur, would it be audible or be too high and only show up on a scope? Which I don't have. If the transition frequency of the output transistors I intend to use (MJE15032G) enters the equation, that number is 30MHz.

This is in addition to my thread on "creating" a resistor for the Akai AA1010 I was reluctant to admit having. I got hold of the proper resistors so that's done. I now know that the NPN of a pair of driver transitors is shot. My intention is replacing the NPN and it's companion PNP. I...

Just swapping motor leads. My motor might get here this week. If nothing bad happens in the second or two it takes to determine rotation, I can see for myself which way round the wires go. The seller still has his ad up, with a factory description. Says direction is clockwise which is...

Yesterday I learned from a fellow who ordered the same Matsushita MHI-5R9C motor for the same CT-F2121 deck from the same vendor as I did. He is in the US so got his first. He claims it runs in the wrong direction. That does not seem right at all - some MHI-5R9C motors spin clockwise and...

Was definatly a 10 ohm. I measured it before it went up in smoke.

Considereing the caliber of gear discussed in this forum, I'm nearly embarrassed to say. But it's an Akai AA-1010. I did the drive today and combined some errands with visiting the parts store. If I burned up $18 wirth of fuel, I wanted to make the trip worthwhile. I got 1/2 watt resistors...

And from me as well.

I am guessing that the original resistor, R18 in the diagram is 1/2 watt. The value is not printed on the diagram, just an asterisk, but I learned it is 10 ohm. If I am understanding it correctly, the note states that if a resistor's value is identified on the schematic, it is 1/4 watt. But...

I am in need of a 10 ohm resistor of at least 1/2 watt and the only 10 ohm resistors I have are 1/4 watt metal film. The nearest "local" business that might have such a thing is over an hour round trip. Like about 100km. If that doesn't pan out, can I solder two resistors in parallel then...

I ordered the ebay motor, ETA end May. The seller had 7 left and something like 88 sold so I figured get one while I coud. Feedack on over 2,000 transaction close to 100%. Landed cost will be about $40CAD. So with the belts this thing will stand me about $70. An oddball deck with a 30hz...

Thanks Nando. I did not think to search by Pioneer's part number just the Mitsubishi number. But the one you linked to is sold. Tomorrow I'm going to pull & open the existing motor, see what it looks like inside. Got nothing to loose.

I posted this on AK but thought I'd do so here as well in case Sam or another cassette deck aficionado catches it and cares to comment. Last winter, while walking my dog, I saw a Yamaha receiver, speakers and this Pioneer CT-F2121 at a curbside. When I got back home, I took the car and picked...

That direct to disc Thelma Houston album was probably a demo record in every HiFi store on the planet.

Many things recently have been making me recall tunes from days past. What's been happening to Ukraine has been bringing this one to mind. Inspired by a different war, but a war is a war. Consequences and suffering are the same regardless of when or where. The song used to give me...
