This is not a 1002, but a 5502, but it has an RC unit with it. Could this be operated with one of those learning remotes?

Thanks

mick,
will your psu run off of 110v? if not, what needs to be changed.
thanks, jess

You only need transformers with 110V primaries. The rest can remain unchanged.

Sure. All stray noise etc. picked up by the shield will then be dumped to ground.

Well I started reading and got to page 43 and ran out of patience.

I searched the thread and I must be using the wrong keywords.

Has anyone Managed to get rid of that annoying BOING-tinkle noise on power up that appears with the logo?
It's DAMN loud and starting to drive me nuts.

Just leave the PS1 on.
Mine is running almost continuously for more than two years and it works fine.

Well maybe it's because I started out with turntables, but I always instinctively turn the volume to Zero at the start and end of playing music. I think it's now become a habit. Stems from not wanting to get the terrific "thump" when the stylus first drops into the groove, or when another piece of kit gets switched on.
