Great to hear that you got rid of the tank. Thanks for all your support with my SX1050 You gave me the best birthday gift as "I" (see note below) completed the recap ang bug fixes on my SX1050 in time for my Birthday!!! Its even better that what my wife gave me ;-)

"I" = Mark as I just acted like a puppet, following his direction.

Glad you are at home rather than in the hospital. I'm glad you don't have to haul around that heavy tank.

 

[markthefixer]

Yup, me too. They just picked up all the tanks, now the only pressurized things around here are spray cans (Deoxit!!) and fire extinguishers.

Great news, Mark! I know that tubing is a major PITA. My mom had to be on oxygen service in her last few years and the tubing was forever getting tangled up and caught on everything. Nothing made me more nervous than the thought of those pressurized O2 cylinders riding around with her in the car - talk about a bomb waiting to go off!

Anyway, congrats on your new freedom and may you continue to recover and get stronger every day!

 

[Kahoona]

Soo good to hear Mark!. Please keep on getting better.

 

[DaWoofer]

Fantastic! Great to hear of your new freedom and continued recovery and advancing in your progress to a healthier life. Wow, keep up the hard work and I look forward to seeing you off that tubing.
Congratulations Mark!

I've been away for a long while and was wondering if Mark was still about doing his good deeds. Wish you well dude, though you probably dont remember me badgering from a couple of years back

HAH, sa-7800 various problems ending in traditional phono output transistor problem and a bad idle current trimpot as the probable initial cause.

In the intervening 2.5 years we have learned to mistrust the trimpots and replace them preventatively.

Your son is now better than halfway through the terrible two's....

 

[Adrock]

Heh, he certainly is mark >_<

I also have a daughter who was a beautiful surprise! She is only 18 months behind my son.

I came back here because I've got the flavour to be playing with the amps again. Fixed my Technics direct drive turntable tonight, dodgy old phono lead coming out. More SA-7800 posts to come soon!

Gotta love a man who keeps good records, regardless of WHERE he keeps em.

 

[DaWoofer]

Hope your well Mark as we haven't seen you post here.Here's hoping your posting other places. Keep up the good fight Mark as you know your life depends on you to do ALL the right things.
Will see you soon!

My Dear Friend and Hero....

Mark

I just came across the post by Robie.. I had been away. Spent the night
reading through 72 pages of posts.. The first few pages had me so scared..
God bless You, your Dad, Robie and all the AK members who love You so
much. I see by your latest post that you are back to being "Batman"..
Someone wrote something about Karma and I believe this...

Batman Forever!

Just got a PM from Mark. He's doing pretty well from the sounds of things and sounds fairly mobile. Just posting to let others know of his great progress.

 

[4seatPilot]

He's been posting up a storm on the pioneer threads, so it does sound like he's doing well.

Fantastic!

 

[Robie]

An update: I spoke with Mark a couple of days ago. For those of you who haven't heard much, I think he sounded better than I've heard him in over a year!!! Y'all are probably aware of this as it appears he's still burning up the keys here in the Pioneer Forum.

 

[AnalogDigit]

That is great news! I'm happy he is posting more in the Pioneer forum.

 

[Cactus Bob]

Good news! Glad good things are going well for Mark!

As usual, Thanks for the heads up Robie!
