It was able to eliminate a lot of pops and ticks on LPs, but not all. Purchased in 1979. After about 3 years some part fizzled and I never got it fixed.

I remember that one. Did you like the way it worked when it was working?
Yes, it helped make listening to LPs more enjoyable. Many pressings of that era (1970s and 1980s) used poor quality vinyl that could have the pops and ticks pressed into them, usually at a low level, and the TNE did a good job of cleaning those up. Well-used LPs with a lot of groove damage were made less annoying but it didn't get all of the ticks out. Then there are the really loud ticks that came from scratches. Some could be eliminated, some not. Sometimes the really loud ones were due to an embedded particle that could be physically removed very cautiously with a dull knife.
