[Vintage-Audio] Revox a77 help needed.

Wed Jan 8 11:10:01 2003

Rick, 	

It is very hard to kill off a Revox. I wonder if it is as bad off as he makes it
appear? I could be totally wrong, but in the vast majority of such situations
the 'fix' is quite minor.

Thankyou Duane, But i do not have time to work on this unit now. I sold the
revox thinking that it would work fine as it did the last time i put it
away. Now i think i will have to just sell it for parts so i can refund some
of the money back to the buyer. thanks again Duane. Rick
