The younger generation bandies about the term "obsolete" too much. They don't know not to do it. They should, after all this time of me telling them they don't know everything! Ha ha

Hi Karen,

Very nice picture of this antique. I used to repair these at one time, and the tape player that came before it. Unfortunately for the customers they took so long to take apart and re assemble that labour costs far exceeded component costs, and even exceeded the value of the thing.
People soon stopped bringing them in...

Best Wishes
Peter

Wow, is it an antique already? Oh dear.... ;-)

This one is still going strong. I hope it will last for a long time still.
