Truvox R44
Has anyone got the circuit of the power supply of this transistorised machine. The PSU has been played with and not terribly well and I don't want to blow up the electronics!! It appears to be positive ground, but I would like to check!!!
One of these... http://www.schimmel.talktalk.net/tape/r44.jpg Cheers, Steve P.

Barry,
The scan will cost more than the 44 is worth.!! |

Re: Truvox R44
The machine you link to is mine. Note that machine had some major mods in the bias area a year or 2 after it was made. I wonder if they did a recall?

Re: Truvox R44
Spot on Colin! And to think Truvox (allegedly) bought the design rights when Magnavox packed in. They had a lot of trouble with the 40 and 50 and should have stuck to the 100/200. Hindsight, eh?!
