Hi Richard, it would be really neat for you to post a picture of where you store all this equipment you've collected!

You must have a warehouse full of it.

regards
Grant

  Hi, Grant:
  
  When I put the JBL L-300 "Summit" loudspeakers in the garage, which I purchased two weeks ago locally, that sort of took up most of the remaining space in my garage. Basically, I have industrial shelving units lining the walls to hold most of my stuff.
  
  Once I have determined if these old Sony TC-350's work, I will offer them, but there was one problem which I did notice on one of these machines. Since I am somewhat familiar with the design and mechanics of these, I saw that on one, the spring-loaded pressure pad flap on the play head was broken and no longer sprung up to press against the head.
  
  I will remove the part and see if I can restore it.
  
  BTW, I do own quite a few fine old open reel decks. I wonder if it would merit holding some sort of a local garage sale. Lots of old turntables, tape recorders and the like?
  
  Maybe it is time!
  
  Thanks!

    Hey, count me in if you do have a garage sale.
    
    At least you wouldn't have to put up signs, you should be able to see your sale from the freeway!

      Hi, IB:
      
      The event might be visible from Skylab!
