Thi message is aimed at the user I believe is BOB HOL. He owns and asked for help with his REALISTIC TR3000 which predates the TEAC X3 and 300. Teac DID make the 3000. In his post he said he had downloaded the service manual, hopefully not the owners manual. I wanted to ask him where he downloaded from or if he bought it from a website. I cannot find his/your original post. Please contact me directly with this info. I cannot find the SM on the web.. Thanks.
