yes i did "spot the N1702"
. Looking forward to renovating.
Shame there isn't more interest in the video side of things. I am trying to make contact with any ex-service engineers that can help me get to the next level of repair diagnostics too. I was hoping to meet some at these fairs - as well as indulge in more kit !
I have far too many old video machines now. And thousands of tapes to remaster/transfer to digital. Only half I have succeeded in fixing - and even then I have been with the help of others.
Anyways.. if anyone can think of a fair that has some more video-related stuff, would always appreciate a PM.
