Good! Than we don't have to figure out shipping costs for me to send you one on the "forever extended" loan plan

Greet him for me! And say I've got Bessie up and running again.

the dat seems ok - and yet no right channel?

[john]

shows on the meters fine, but the right channel is almost non existent audibly. I tried two dat tapes same result, tried both analog outs. digital out and headphones.. so looks like the right channel on the deck  is likely to be at fault, somewhere post metering but pre-D/A

so looks like i will be back looking for dat player.. , I'm puzzled why even the right hand digital output doesn't even work, that said I have only ever done basic maintenance on DAT players and I don't have a circuit diagram or oscilloscope for diagnostics. I'll speak to prom and see if he has any ideas. I just feel bad Prom's DAT machine isn't working...
