Shortly before reading this post, I had been sorting through my "treasures".
Stored away in a container was a Hart Lindsley Hood cassette recorder kit, which I had mostly completed before putting it to one side to be finished later. That was around 1980. Also present is a pristine JVC cassette deck, in its original packing. House moves, change of work patterns and too many other projects seem to have intervened.
Hart do not appear to have provided a layout for the PCB's (mother and daughter boards) but provided step by step assembly instructions, with component numbers and their values.
These kits were obviously intended for use with the buyer's own ancillaries, such as case, audio amp., PSU, etc.
There are a number of printed sheets with it and I could probably scan or copy them.
I shall probably never get around to completing this, so wonder if there would be any interest in the kit and JVC deck?
( I have also found a never started Hart kit for an AM/FM tuner).
