Hi, I just received my eBay TPA-1 score.
It seems to power the amp up, makes a nice click anyhow but the turntable spins free and I couldn't detect any motor sound- so wondering if the platter comes off from the top, or what? If someone else has one that could post a picture of your battery cover I would appreciate it, but seems to be a simple part to make picture is out of focus, need to clean it up and reshoot!
Battery terminals look fine [Image: https://antiqueradios.com/forums/images/..._smile.gif] 65+ years of dirt and grime but except for a couple minor corner scuffs should clean up nice!
Thx,
-Bob
