[Vintage-Audio] help with eico st-70 and equalizer connection

Sat Aug 24 00:05:00 2002

hi chuck. yes, it does make sense to me now, but only after your gracious
response. i too have done a bit of work on tube gear (see
http://www.flipperpie.com for shots of my little shack).
and yes, i am aware of eico's tuner to match the st70. i believe that there are
actually three different tuners that match, no?
i remember seeing an AM only tuner, and also an AM/FM tuner, and as well, the
ST97 stereo FM tuner which i own. mine needs some work. i am not at all
impressed with the way it has been performing here. i shudder to think about
aligning it. any thoughts/tips on how to align a stereo tuner? i hear they are a
real pain.
