Re: Grundig TK27 - Low audio output
Well progress at last. Changed all Valves, removed and checked volume control, disconnected head and checked it. No different, low volume, no bias oscillator
Then removed the upper to right switch band and sanded all contacts. Much better but still intermittent low/high volume. While tapping the lower right switch asm it changed and started whistling. Ahhh.
So removed it again, found one switch with the shield was not shorting when closed. So sanded every one again thoroughly until very shiny. Lol.
Now it’s playing beautiful ! And I have a solid bias every time. But it is not recording any audio ! Erase head has bias and so does the head but the magic eye is not flickering when recording
I think I soldered the 330k resistor in the wrong spot in the tag strip. Can anyone please tell me where this resistor should be connected to ? It correct at the top switch end, but not sure about the tag strip end.
Please see photo with yellow circle.
