Hello, I've recently bought a DD1, for repair. Unfortunately, the FG coil (the thing under the capstan wheel on all DD Walkmans) seems to be open....

Hi, I thought a PC202 box would fit on it, but it's too narrow. If anyone has a spare and would like to sell it, please contact me. Doesn't matter...
I managed to find an HS-PC202, untested, for a nice 51 Euro. It had the plastic AAA battery compartment, which was what attracted me to it. I have...
It's most likely that the ELEC name was bought out by someone and for a brief period of time they operated under the name ELEC Records and...
What's even more interesting, according to Japanese Wikipedia, ELEC Records was a record label that existed since 1969 *but* they went bankrupt in...
Fellow members, I think I have uncovered something nobody on the internet was previously aware of. There were not 6 microcassette albums. There...

Last week I was scrolling through local auctions and found a lot of 33 Walkmans for sale, $3 a piece. They weren't in good cosmetic condition, but...
Wow, so they had actually made a prototype to display? That's really cool, I wonder if it still exists somewhere in the world. I'd kill for a...
I have a silver National RN-Z600, wouldn't recommend getting one though. Incredibly hard to get to the belt, plus the circuit board is basically a...
Those full logic Pearlcorders are really neat, I wish they had made a stereo version.
That Philips cassette up above isn't actually a minicassette - it was called the Micro Mini, I think. A standard minicassette is larger than a...
My entire portables collection, from the upper left: Sony M-1PD, Olympus SR11, Aiwa HS-M2, Sony M-50, National RN-GZ7. [IMG] The little Aiwa has...
