RCA Record Changers
#1

After doing some tinkering around today for a shop up north, I have a need for info on the 1950's RCA, four speed record changers. One thing I'd like to know is: Is there a bulletin out there that shows how to work these critters? This guy has two very nice condition RCA Hi-fi units. One floor model with a five tube, transformered chassis that has been recapped. Great sounding unit, but the changer won't work right. It works smoothly, but won't detect the record and keeps shutting down after each record drops. It rejects correctly at the end of the records though. The other unit is a table model with legs that will probably have the same issues. One or both could be mine if we can figure them out. The repair guy I know has no love for these changers. Icon_sad

No matter where you go, there you are.
