World's First All-Transistor Phonograph developed by Philco-1955
#20

OK maybe I'll start a new thread when I actually do something unique, like convert it to a AM/FM/BT/.mp3 player, of course I'll need to punch it full of ventilation holes when I retrofit the Mabuchi 17,000 RPM RC280 24MM TPA-1 retrofit straight from China, hoping to play Inagaddadavida @ 78 RPM and see what I can see lol . . . of course this strobe disc will be useless then :-(  . . .        

(BTW Do you think Ron would kick me off for doing it again?  I can see the board is flooded with TPA-1/2 posts)  Had a nice chat with Timmy yesterday and curious to learn more about Rick Hirsh if he is still around here and if anyone has a good recommendation for replacing the gooey foam around the motor, maybe a hunk of pipe insulation, or??  I'll search here somewhere to see what Kirk might have posted about his)
