TK23 user manual needed
Hello,
I'm a Italian radio amateur called I4YFC. Some days ago I bought an old reel to reel Grundig TK23 in good condition. Now I need the user manual because I do not understand the function of the RED button located on right and signed with "T" and "A". 1st question: Someone could send me the user manual in English or German ? 2nd question: The volume control is only automatic or also manual ? Thanks and 73's Fabrizio I4YFC |

Re: TK23 user manual needed
Hi,
I think that 'T' is for 'trick' (i.e. superimpose) and that 'A' is for Amplifier to enable the machine to be used as a "straight through" amplifier. The red button is the record select button and is used in conjunction with the Play (start) button. As far as I am aware this model only has a manual record position, the volume control being used to set the recording level, that having been said the 'A' on the record button may stand for automatic recording level and not amplifier as I previously suggested. Regards Andrew |

Hi Fabrizio.The red button is the record (registrare) selector-"A" is aufnehmen in German (record-registrare) so "T" is play.This is from memory from many years ago so I hope it's correct.Ciao.

Re: TK23 user manual needed
Fabrio,
I think you have the 23L , slightly different to the 23. However the switch you mentioned is as follows, "T " is as mentioned for superimpose & has to be held down while doing so. "A" is for automatic recording & the position in the middle of "T" & "A" is for normal manual recording Colin. |
