Looks like a good time!  Tom, Dave and Steve seem to be having a blast.  What speakers are those in the last two pics?

looks like Steve is having difficulty with his middle finger getting stuck.  Sure is a handsome lad though.

He came over and ran them through a bunch of tests.  The speakers passed with ease. He likes them.

But, he likes Kingman's Phase Turntable more... >:D

The motor would only operate one way for the arm lift.  He also rebuilt the control board.

The Bearjew is correct, it's Tammy my girlfriend. I am guessing you mean the LS-1 upside down with the bottom off. One channel is messed up. It belonged to James and he was trying to get it fixed at the fest. It went home with Zucher to repair it, then it will go to MRHP off the Carver forum.
