    Measuring Tascam Ms-16 Output Voltage and Rec/Play Cards

    About the G2V-282P 24v Relay: I have found it, but it says 47/7 on it. What does this mean? I have also found one that is G2V-2-US-24v It is an 8-Pin as well. It isn't sealed.

    Measuring Tascam Ms-16 Output Voltage and Rec/Play Cards

    Not much experience. Not much money either, so I wanted to try and find the problem myself. WOW. That was a LOT of really great info. All my questions were answered and more. I felt that maybe the IC's were the problem w/ Ch-6 because they handle power/amplification(right?). Well, thanks for...

    Measuring Tascam Ms-16 Output Voltage and Rec/Play Cards

    Hey there, I finally got my Multi-Meter working and now I am going into my Tape Machine to try and find the culprit of why it isn't working in Sync Mode and why the Channel 6 Card is barely responding to any signal.:confused: So... I have some questions: 1)How do I measure the Output of my...

    Tascam MS-16 blowing fuses?

    I just read that fuses will blow because some other part is not functioning properly rather than the fuse itself and the it is preventing a fire or damage to the equipment. So I'm wondering where the problem may lie. There are SO many problems with my machine that it really could be anything. I...

    Tascam MS-16 blowing fuses?

    I have tried with the Transport plugged into the Amplifier Unit and not plugged in. Same thing happened. That's what I thought the problem was, I first tried with it unplugged and thought maybe it blew because the circuit wasn't completed.

    Tascam MS-16 blowing fuses?

    There are 2 Fuses for the Rec/Play Output. They are both the same type of fuse. One Fuse is fine, but the other keeps blowing when I turn the Transport power on. Any ideas on why this is and how I can fix it? Thanks, Thomas

    Tascam MS-16 Sync Alignment Problem-SOS!

    Thanks for the input:) So, now Channel 9 is working 80% of the time, but Channel 5 is giving me a big headache. That one does not get up to 0VU ever. Also, at some point the Channel 5(Repro and Sync) fell back -3db, so I had to compensate +3db. What do you think this is? A defective Rec/Play...

    Tascam MS-16 Sync Alignment Problem-SOS!

    Thanks so much for the reply.:) I feel that the problem may lie in either the Head Connector Modules or the Transport-Amplifier Sync Head Input, like you mentioned. What exactly needed to be repaired, and how? Thanks ghost! -Thomas

    Tascam MS-16 Sync Alignment Problem-SOS!

    So, I just received my MRL Tape today and I've been working on the machine for most of the day. The Repro Head Alignment/Calibration was relatively simple. But the Sync Head is really making me angry/nervous. Here's the problem: I play a 1khz Tone. Now and then a Meter or 2 will not respond...

    First post: Teac 80-8

    Hey there, I don't own a 80-8(But I am looking feverishly for one) anyways, what you say about the "Record-Ready", is absolutely correct. I read some info about the 80-8 on Reel-To-Reel Texas' website(in the vintage ads section) and it says that the lights blink when in "Record-Ready" which is...
