Hi guys,
Last week I bought a Dual CT-110 tuner from a thrift shop, and although it appeared to be working fine, it has started acting up today..
The problem is this:
No matter how the antenna is positioned, all FM signal wil drop completely after a few seconds.
I'd turn the tuner on, and...
Aloha!
A few of us have been chatting about our favorite Live FM Jazz "Shows" and where to find them, so it was decided that we'd keep a list of them. This is NOT simply a generic list of stations that broadcast Jazz, but a list of particular LIVE JAZZ SHOWS that a station is producing for...
Hi all, forgive me for asking a question that has likely been discussed in the past. I am wondering how to tell how many gangs a vintage FM tuner actually has? And how to tell the difference between AM and FM gangs? Is it a visual inspection, or do I have to know how to read a schematic? Also...
I find this nice piece of vintage receiver. It is serviced, had replaced caps and transistors, in good conditions inside and out. Good sound, but ...(only)if i play FM radio left channel is low volume, had distortion. Could someone help me find the solution of this problem please.
Hi all!
I've been following along with both thxdave and Steven Tate's threads as it seems that we are all currently recapping a 2275 (how do you guys insert those cool short blue links? Was going to link to those threads and the parts list, but it comes up as the big long URL address...)...
The 2238B service manual calls for adjusting trimmer C121 and oscillator coil L107. C121 is marked in the manual, it is the top one pointed to in the picture. But where is L107? Is it the coil that the second arrow is pointing to? I do not see it on the board layout in the sm.
It also calls for...
Hey All,
While the 2265B is waiting for a relay and filter caps, I decided to open up a 2015 that is waiting. This unit is in pretty nasty shape. The bass and selector were pretty much frozen in place. I cleaned all the controls and managed to get the bass and selector moving freely again...
I have a Marantz 2226b that had developed a noticeable hum, but only on FM. 75 ohm amplified and 300 ohm wire produced same results. Aux and Tape settings produced no hum. So I pulled it from the living room setup and put in my basement dwelling Harmon Kardon Citation Eleven preamp, Pioneer...
Mine is "Sounds Of The Sixties" with Brian Matthews ...it featues some great 60s music both popular and obscure....its a great 2 hour listen on a Saturday morning!:banana:
I'm working on a 2325 that has about 1/2 normal volume when on FM.
The tuning meter does not work.
The signal strength meter shows strong reception.
The P200 IF board has been rebuilt and triple-checked for soldering/parts issues.
It is not the P300 M MPX board as it has been swapped out for...
I am getting real close on this but I seem to be at a loss from this point on.
1. The Problem: Very low volume on FM and FM Stereo> In other words I have to turn the volume all the way up to even hear it. (AM AUX and Tape in work fine)
2. What I have noticed: Troubleshooting this problem I...
I have a Pioneer SX 880 receiver. I need to know which RF Transformer to adjust so that the FM Center tuning meter is at dead center with maximum signal. I don't think I want to adjust the trimmer capacitors on the tuning capacitor. The center tuning meter is a little off to the left with...
Good day folks
I picked up this behemoth of a tuner yesterday. It is in extremely good condition for its age. But as per usual the memory battery is shot and has caused some acid damage to the surrounding components.
The reception and sound is out of this world!
In due time it will be...
