Hmm. It appears that I have failed to upload the video once again . I just tried again (via dragging it into a message composition window). I saw an "Oops! We ran into some problems." dialog after the transfer completes. I must have missed seeing that last time - Ugh.

Finally, after much ado, and delay is a sample of the video.

I wanted to thank you again for the X-1000R switches. They worked perfectly. Of course the size switch does nothing - there is no connection to it on the switch board, but it goes in and out like the other one that actually does have a function, with that satisfying latching action!!!!

Will do, after I figure out what is going on with my computer. It is stuck on an OS reinstallation at the “11 minutes to go“ mark...

It does not smoke. I have to wait for my loads to arrive for a full up test. I have triggered the protection circuit a couple of times and it comes right back after a delay. I tried to upload video, but it failed, sigh.

Yes, the 55 VDC value I stated earlier was a measurement at the coil. The coil of mine measured as open circuit. The coil I got to replace it has series chokes on its terminals. This one is apparently from one of the later models that do not have the LED meters, so it has the protection...

How long should these relays last? Since I received the unit in a failed state and others have obviously worked on it, I have no idea if the part I found in there is correct. The installed one is an apparently unsuppresed coil designed to work on AC voltages, but is fed with a DC voltage of...

The transistors connected to the relay test fine. There is a suspect 10 uF / 100 V electrolytic (swollen seal) that I will probably replace too - I do not have an LCR meter or capactor tester (yet), so I can only do the coarsest of test with a DMM, on them. I did see the charge/discharge curves...

Okay... order placed, grin.

Here are photos of the relay. Mounting is via a single screw in the based of the coil.

Okay - I replaced all of the LEDS - I like the brightness.... I have run audio through both channels into an actual speaker - and that part works!!!! What doesn't work is the protection circuit. The cause - an open coil in the relay. Anyone have one of those they's like to sell? It is a 1/4...

I saw that smoked 220 Ohm resistor on the display board. I had some of those on 200 Gen 1 amp also. Each channel has three of them that form resistor voltage divider for the display. I replaced them with "flameproof" versions. In my case, I traced the fault to overvoltage coming from the one...

I grew up in near New Orleans in south Louisiana, If I recall correctly, it snowed about once a decade, in any amount that would “stick.” Summers were rough due to the combination of heat with humidity, but I suspect I could re-acclimate, grin.

Grin, I left Champaign-Urbanna IL to specifically escape weather like this, a bit over 31 years ago.

Good Evening Sam, We are currently hunkered down in 7 degree deep freeze here in DFW Texas, where the power has been lost almost 16 hours ago. Let me know if you ever encounter a 440B that you could recommend as a compliment my X-1000R. Dan

Oh man, I can tell I want one of those already. It looks lie a totally no-nonsense piece of hardware.

>> All of those pail next to the Tascam 44OB. << Thank you sir, I will be on the lookout for the Tascam 440B on your suggestion.

Hi Sam. I am very late to reply here for everyone to see, but of course you know the switches you sent worked perfectly. Installing was a breeze and the deck is now totally functional. Thank you so much for that!!!. I have a buyer's advice question now. I have been given a TEAC A-2340R four...

Out of curioustiy, How much do you want for your tascam Decks?

Thank you for doing what you could to help those folks. We still have family in the area. I believe that one of the properties my wife's uncle was working on was her grandparent's home. If I recall correctly, it was reduced to a slab. We saw so much ruin, even many months afterward, that the...
