Restoration Project - TS180S
My latest acquisition, which will have to wait until the "Eden9" project is complete, is a 1979-vintage Trio (Kenwood) TS-180S.
It's in fine mechanical condition, but doesn't work!
The display just shows a row of dots, indicating that the PLL circuitry is u/s.
A quick check revealed some supply voltages to be not what they are supposed to be, but whether that is cause, effect or just a "red herring" has yet to be determined.
Update - July '11
Repairs have been progressing for the last few week - please see my blog for the gory details!
