That's my weakness. I don't know enough about electronics to track the causes. I'm still hunting hands on electrics courses where I can ask...
I looked at the construction of the ceramics, and I thought that they'd likely be fine, but that was a pure guess. Unfortunately, there are issues...
OK - so... I managed to get the tuner circuit out and I've mapped the film capacitors, but not the ceramics. The question is... should I replace...
I woke up to their replies :-) I've never used JST before, so this is going to be my first time. I have this coming -...
The Aiwa TPR 950 has loads of wires with no connectors. Net result... a heck of a lot of soldering and de-soldering. I've spied JST connectors......
The first steps with the Aiwa boom box, are daunting. Everything is soldered into everything else. The wiring is a rats nest. The only good thing...
Will do. Due to the timing of the next funds being taken, along with postage delays, I probably won't get my first tape for four weeks.

Cheers. Good advice. This is giving me a great step forward. The final caps are here, so I'm "gearing" up now :-) - **cough** - yes, I know......
Thanks!
Hi Folks, I'm getting closer to doing things... I am going to do an SMD training board, then a spectrum analyser, and then I'm going to start...
So, time ticks and the weeks pass until the capacitors are with me hopefully in the middle of next month. Tinnitus is proving a problem which I...
It is a nice beast, sure. The radio isn't catching on the channels properly, so I suspect that the radio side needs recapping. Also, the rewind on...
All hail the mighty Aiwa... I definitely don't want to drop this on my foot. [ATTACH]
Yup, once I altered the voltage selector. Only tested the radio so far.
And now... live... from Galveston, performing in the UK thanks to an international voltage selector... Ladies and Gentlemen... give it up for.......
That is, actually, good news. Much more repairable than a failed switch, I believe. One thing I'm going to have to do, is put together a...
I was afraid of that. The one thing that gives me hope, is that they work for the radio, so it may be somewhere else in the circuitry... it all...
Well, the interesting thing is that it works on the radio. I don't know if it's going to be the switch, unless the switch has separate contacts...
Well, it sounds like I've got a bit of work to do on it yet... "I have two of these radios, so decided to move one on to a new owner. When I...
