Understood, thanks,
Unfortunately, the decks have been in the closet too long. Working with them this weekend and one playsback great but when recording only one channel records, the other channel is just hiss.
The other doesn't sound great playing, and recording just produces silence, no input shows on the meters when trying to record. But monitoring source input signal is fine.
So I have some work to do. I guess it is amazing after all these years that they work at all. Normally available replacements for the capacitors and transistors for two decks only cost $50 at Mouser, I just did the BOM. I can do the R&R, I am pretty good with soldering and desoldering.
BUT I don't have the knowledge to troubleshoot electronics problems, nor calibrate a deck.
I'll order the parts for two decks and in the meantime unwrap the 909 and keep my fingers crossed.
Plan B would be to try and find a pro and see if I can work out a trade: restore one 707 and take the other in payment.
