Here are some pictures of the DIY “hook” that I attached the spring to. The wire hook beneath the screw is a piece of a much longer spring, cut...
Hi there, Just to mention that I too had flagged an azimuth stability issue - may have been in your WM-D3 calibration thread @Valentin ? - that...
Another great post @Valentin !
That’s great - thanks @Emiel ! I actually did end up finding the SM with legible voltages on A.N.T’s site, but yours too is a significant...
Once again - gold!! I for one have experienced the wobble, and have spent lots of time and energy with different solutions for reducing it. Now we...
Hey there! Does anyone by chance have a scanned version of the D5 Pro or Pro ii service manual with legible voltages in the schematics section?...
Got my replacement ICs (Servo and FG Amp) so hoping to start looking at voltages across the board to better identify the issue. Will be gone...
Thanks for the detail @Valentin ! Will think about how best to drum up support for the manufacture of new rubber capstan rings - after digging...
Thanks @Valentin ! In response to the capstan ring, from what I can tell it’s in ‘OK’ shape, but I’d imagine it’s begun to lose some of its...
Hi there, Currently in the process of refurbishing a TC-D5 Pro ii. My first of the D5 series, and have been really impressed so far! Something I...
Hi again, Back to close the loop on my WM-D3 calibration. All calibration procedures were completed, including tape speed, azimuth, playback...
Hey there, I’ll be including this in my reply to the WM-D3 Calibration Tutorial that @Valentin put together, but one thing I found while checking...
Had a few mechanical snags during the D3 calibration process, which I’m happy to report are finally resolved. I’ll report back shortly on those...
Another home run thread, @Valentin ! Just went through this process myself a few weeks ago on my WM-D3. I ended up making a homemade jig using...
Once again - this level of information is exactly what I was looking for, and your explanations are as clear as it gets. Thanks Valentin....
Hi Valentin, This is seriously great information - so appreciate your taking the time to thoroughly explain. It sounds like, while not...
Hi there, Thanks so much for the step-by-step tutorial! One question - I’ve been trying desperately to understand importance of matching my...
Hey there! Pardon the fact that this thread is an old one... Was wondering what, if anything, came about with looking into the T301 oscillator?...
Thanks @mattb1970 - will report back once I’ve tested the components.
First off - @Silver965 , @mattb1970 , and @Longman - thank you all for the fantastic information! Sincerely appreciate it. I'll definitely be...
