Re: 1962 Magnavox Stereo Theater with a busted Theater...

It's the diameter of the motor shaft and the motor rpm that determines the speed. The larger the diameter of the motor shaft the faster it will turn the drive wheel.

Since it's skipping it sounds like you have a bad needle or it's installed wrong.

Hope you get it working well.

Re: Magnavox Quadraphonic Console Cincinnati, Ohio

I never thought about it looking like a keyboard but you're right. :lol:

I wouldn't want it either but posted it because I hadn't ever saw anything like it before.

Magnavox Quadraphonic Console Cincinnati, Ohio

I haven't ever saw anything like this. It's interesting but I don't think I'd really want it especially considering the price. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1406530134581636/?ref=browse_tab&referral_code=marketplace_general&referral_story_type=general_listing&tracking=%7B%22q...

Re: $600 to fix the garbage disposal

Danny, if it were me I would have an HVAC, one you would trust, come and do a service on your furnace just to make sure everything is ok, and there is not a rusted hole in the heat exchanger. More than likely your furnace is way better built than anything you can buy new and will probably out last ...

Re: $600 to fix the garbage disposal

My heat has been 100% wood for a long time but I'm probably going to start using a gas furnace again. My furnace will probably still work but it hasn't been used since the early 2017 burning season. It's the original furnace that was installed in 1987 when I built my house so I know it wouldn't hur...

Re: $600 to fix the garbage disposal

It seems like ever since the Covid era that prices have become ridiculously high. Maybe they were high before that and I didn't notice since I've always done almost every bit of repair work myself. My icemaker isn't working at all right now and if I can't figure out what's wrong with it, I'll have t...

Re: Country music versus bluegrass

I have quite a bit of bluegrass music that I've enjoyed through the years. I like a lot of different artists and groups like Jim and Jesse, Hylo Brown, Flatt and Scruggs and others. Hylo Brown is one of my favorites and I discovered him about ten or so years ago when I bought a cd with various artis...

At least you weren't driving to the liquor store to buy some alcohol the way George Jones did on his John Deere lawn mower. Or were you? :lol:

Re: Magnavox Windsor Console

Good find. Make sure you have help to move it because it's very heavy and it's hard to find a place to hold on to. It's very difficult for two men to move.

Re: The price of gas went down...

Gas Buddy show the gas in the town near me at $4.09 to $4.19. I was told by another person that the new WaWa station still had gas for less than $4.00.

Re: Finally Retired

My back trouble gradually diminished after the nerve injections. The copays for them among the other medical copays with the medicare coverage I had were extortionate. My sister couldn't believe them. I had to cancel my next round of nerve injections. I also had to cancel a heart stress test becaus...

Re: The price of gas went down...

GasBuddy is showing gas in the town nearest me at about $3.89. If you travel in either direction it's 4.08 or higher. Mostly higher. I think the reason we have lower prices is because a WaWa station just opened up and they're probably keeping their prices lower to bring in new customers. We use a lo...

Re: Altec Lansing 601B Unionville, In. $40

I'm probably better off not knowing what model they were that way I won't be on the lookout for a pair. If I found some and bought them my wife might (probably would) give me an ultimatum like yours did.

Re: Altec Lansing 601B Unionville, In. $40

I've only owned one set of speakers in my lifetime that I genuinely liked. A set of Peavey studio speakers with an 18" woofer, 12" driver and two horns. Connected to my Pioneer SX-1050, these speakers were lethal. They would shake the wife's geegaws off the wall and even off shelves on oc...

Yeah, she thinks I have too much electronic stuff already.

I wish I could find a pair of speakers that really...

Re: Altec Lansing 601B Unionville, In. $40

Yes, two mismatched Realistic and two what seems to be Altec Lansing speakers. You'd have to look inside to verify what they are but since it has what appears to be Altec divider networks there's a good chance that the speakers inside are actually 601B like is written on the back of them. The 601B i...

Altec Lansing 601B Unionville, In. $40

If these speakers have in them what they say on the back (601B) I'm surprised that they haven't already sold. Maybe since they're not advertised as Altec is the reason they're not getting much attention. I did a little reading on them, and the tweeters are prone to go bad. Even if they're bad and th...

I have one (can't remember which model) and it has a device that makes it play the song again. I'm not sure if it's all there though.
