  3. It too hot to hang outside (109F, 42.7C). Got chilled going to the local record store. Walked out with these gems.

  9. There's no signal passing in the right headphone channel of this Tascam 244 multitrack cassette recorder, and the left channel is distorted. Removed the Playback Amp PCB in order to recap the whole Monitor section. Now to reassemble and test. #recdel

  12. Reassembling & testing a few Tascam units today, post deep-cleaning.

    424mkII: The capstan motor only turned if nudged by hand. Disassembled and refurbished the motor; it's now working fine.

    Porta02mkII: A power adapter w/ incorrect polarity was used, cutting off playback signal to two tracks. Replacing capacitors fixed it.

    414mkII: The power jack had a crack down the middle. Likely the machine was dropped. Replaced the jack; the machine now turns on as it should. #recdel

  15. Desoldered & reflowed broken solder joints on multiple rear jacks; power had been cutting out when the plug was wiggled.

    A charred transistor prevented signal to the right channel Monitor Out jack; replaced it.

    Disassembled & deep cleaned; calibrated the tape mechanism; tested I/O, routing, recording & playback.

    This Tascam 424mkIII will be returned to the client in Nashville in a few weeks! #recdel

  18. Finished all cleaning tasks for this Tascam 244. 🧼

    There was cigarette(?) grime on the internal metal chassis that I cleaned off (mostly) using baby wipes. Also ultrasonic-cleaned the removable plastic parts, sponge-cleaned the faceplate and cassette door, a few passes over the PCBs with an electric duster, and took a toothbrush to the circular fader dust guards.

    Now moving on to contact-cleaning all potentiometers & switches... #recdel

  21. More progress on the Tascam 688 repair from Saturday.

    After adding all those jumper cables, the unit was still experiencing weirdness when switching between input and playback on most tracks. Temporarily swapped in PCBs from another 688 until I isolated that the problem had to be on the Asn Cont PCB. (That's the orangish-brown one.)
