Hi everyone!
I have an ampex ATR104 here, picking up dust and I want to revive it.
I has parts missing that went into the ATR102, at least the capstan tacho disc is missing.
I'm trying to get a replacement but in the meantime I'd like to estimate if it needs more work or not, so any help is appreciated!
Right now when it switch it on, the motor starts winding crazy and nothing stops it, could that be due to the missing tacho disc or is it the transport that's going wild?
On the control panel I can't switch the tracks to input, they are stuck to repro, should this be independent from the motor running endlessly? Is the remote broken as well?
If anyone ever experienced that I'd greatly appreciate any tips and hints.
Thanks everyone!
Jules
