Default Re: What was this Mains Isolator unit used for?

I made my own for recording from a Sobell TV to my Grundig tape recorder.

I would have been around 14 and it was built into a 2 part Blue and orange slide case with a DYMO title (done at school) Tip of the Pip Toy.

I may even still have it although little from this period survives having been dumped by my parents whilst I was in Portsmouth.

Yes I used it to record Top of the Pops.

The speaker on this set was not isolated by the output transformer.

I do still have the tape recorder and some of those recordings.

Cheers

Mike T
