      Hello Mister X! I was told you’re known for Cloneman cassette players, so I wanted to ask for some help. I have a Technidyne HPS-100 that I’m restoring, but some wires are disconnected and I don’t know their original solder points. I haven’t been able to find a wiring diagram or internal photos. Do you happen to have photos showing the original wiring? It would really help. Thank you!

        I'd love to help you but I ship all mine to AutoReverser when I find them. Maybe try to PM him. Most of the "clones" don't have service manuals and you have to rely on someone else with the unit (AR has one) to show you photos of the insides.

      Hi Mister X,
      Sam here from Chicago. I have a box of various walkmans I am offering them for free or the actual shipping cost just so they go somewhere so the parts or cosmetics are used. This is not the same as selling them- If a guy wants to come over to my place I will give the box for free. Does this break any rules do you think?

        No problem, we have a 2nd hand thread at the bottom for this stuff. You can sell if you like, just do so at your own risk. Just like any forum, a scammer might be lurking around.

      I see these on Yahoojapan. Sony CRF-330K Original Users Manual, Original Sony Service Manual in Japanese, (3) Original Sony Catalogs-Sony Brochures-Dealer Catalogs in Japanese. Any ideas how to get them? Is there a way to post anything on Yahoojapan & have them put them on EBay?

      I live in Fergus Falls, Minnesota 56537. There is a person on EBay that has a lot of Factory Brochures & Write Up’s including all the Sony CRF-330K everything that Sony ever produced ever including the 3 Sony Service Technical Service Bulletin’s which I don’t have. I do have the (4) Original Main Service Manuals. I offered the person $400.00 but no taker

        I think the only part missing is the tape deck. The EQ is here, and my dad said the tape deck is the one that's gone missing.

      Mister X,
      Could you have you friend in Japan purchase some Brochures & Manuals for me? I’d give him an Extra $75.00 for his Troubles. They are all on Yahoojapan.com. My bank will not budge on letting me purchase anything from any Asian Countries. They are all for Sony CRF-330K Radio.

        He's packing up and leaving soon, it takes a few days to win an auction and to have the stuff shipped to his home which would be after he leaves.

      Hello Mister X,
      I am now a happy owner of the Fisher PH-M77.
      I saw your comment in a thread about this machine but not sure if you own one? If you have opened/repaired such a Fischer model, I would be grateful if you could help me with some information.
      Best wishes, V. Kutev

        Nice! I open very few pieces of equipment, especially in the summer, just too busy with work and car repair.

        Search both Fisher and Sanyo, they are the same unit but the reality is, they were pretty rare and expensive when new.

      Hi Mister X, I have the Magnavox 8011 same as the one you posted and I cant find any other information on it other than finding your post here. Can you tell me more or lead me to somewhere I can get any details on it? Thank you.

        I'd love to but haven't seen anything ever. It might be a retagged Philips but there's no brochures that I've seen.

      Hi Mister X, I just saw your fantastic thread about Boombox Archaeology. At the top of that thread you refer to another thread where you discuss Walkman patents. For some reason I haven't been able to find that thread, and was wondering if you'd be able to point me to it? Thanks

        Sorry for the late reply, look up Walkman Archaeology, it's the same kind of stuff.

      Hi Mister X. I haven't received a weekly email with most popular posts, for a couple of weeks (maybe longer). Has this been discontinued or is there a setting on my account that I need to change...? Thanks for any help. Kind regards, Nick.

      I have one of the Sony Walkman SRF-H5 and have lost the screw that attaches one of the headphone to the neck strap. Do you know what size screw that I
      need to reattach my headphone ? One of the posts on a different forum said Sony DD walkman (?) use M1.4x2.5 or M1.4x3.2 possibly. Can you help or guide
      me to where I can find the correct screw? Thanks.

        I have a set of tiny screws that I bought back in the 80s or 90s that I use since during my work as a warranty shop I worked on tonys of small sony items and screws were either missing or lost or wrong driver was used .

      Those are super-rare and not well known, check out auctions on yahoo.jp and you might get lucky but it will take a long time.

        Thanks loadhog! There's so much cool stuff in Tokyo and if it's popular in print or TV, there's a store or restaurant with the same theme. The Mandarake Stores have a ton of used toys and books to look over. https://earth.mandarake.co.jp/shop/
