Hello Everyone.
I now have possession of at least some of the Signal Transfer PCB stock, and I am going to do my utmost to fulfil outstanding orders and sort things out. I began mailing PCBs this afternoon. I have in stock:
ST part num
Trimodal power amp PCB002
Load Invariant amp PCB004
RIAA preamp unbal out PCB006
RIAA preamp bal out PCB007
Protection card PCB008
Compact Class-B amp PCB009
Low noise balanced input PCB0012
Power amp PSU PCB0014
Devinyliser PCB0015
with accompanying construction notes.
The prices are still as on the website. I plan to absorb the post & packing charges in the UK, as some compensation for the inconvenience you have suffered, but may need to charge for big orders to foreign countries
I will do my best to send out any order within 24 hours, subject to post offices being closed on Sunday. Just email me at the address on the front page of my website.
I do not currently use paypal, but payment can be transferred directly to my bank account. That is tried & working.
There is little more I can do but say how sorry I am this has all happened. For your information Gareth Connor is utterly ignoring all my attempts to communicate with him by any means. This is someone who was my good friend and co-worker for decades. The only explanation is that there are medical reasons, and I don't mean physical ones.
DO NOT send Gareth Connor any money by any means. I have no way to recover it. I will be updating the website in the next day or two to reflect the new situation.
I would be glad if you could spread this information as widely as possible.

Many thanks for the update Douglas, all those caught up in this will appreciate it. This is an issue that has sadly been simmering for a long long time.
I am painfully aware of it. But if someone refuses to talk to you, and it is illegal to drive around the country to investigate directly, I'm not sure what I could have done.
Thank you Mr Self! I'll take one each of the RIAA preamp unbal out PCB006
RIAA preamp bal out PCB007
Would you PM me the particulars to start the process?

Hello everybody
In the course of sending my first ever PM on this forum, I discovered a list of messages going back some time. Please don't think I have been ignoring you; the setup here gave me no clue that such messages existed.
I will be working backwards time-wise through these messages and will answer them as fast as I can, though I appreciate that some answers may be of limited relevance at this point.
This will take me some time. If you have an urgent enquiry please let me know.

Hopefully good news for the community and yourself that you are able to take some control. Is the signal transfer website under your control? - I notice it's a bit broken...
The situation is that I have some of the ST stock and I am fulfilling existing orders as fast as I can.
I do do have control of the website and I going to update it very soon to reflect the new situation. I disabled it yesterday so no-one sends any more money to Gareth, as I have no way to recover it.
I have no control at all over what (if anything) is happening in Mytholmroyd, and Gareth ignores all my attempts to contact him.

I have put a note at the start of this thread to reflect the current situation and to direct any reader to post #184
Thanks Mooly
Announcing that the Signal Transfer website is back in action, with contact details suitably redacted. My email address is on the front page.
I regret that the Class-G power amplifier and the Precision Preamplifier are currently not available from me.

PM options
As mentioned in PM but for lurkers and other interested parties:
AFAIK the default is PM Enabled and PM Notification (via eMail) Enabled.
However there are options to limit these actions.
And very long-time members like Self and myself have been through forum upgrades and maybe snit-storms where these options may have been set off their defaults.
The settings:
To get PM notifications:
- User Control Panel
- Settings & Options
- Messaging & Notification
- Private Messaging
-- [X]Receive Email Notification of New Private Messages
Another possible block on PM notification: Your email setup considers DIYAudio email to be "spam".
I am ambivalent about letting DIYA "spam" me about PMs. Most are not as urgent as they think. They can wait until I visit again.
While IN the forums, there is an indication but it is very small. Like this:

Doug, hope I'm not sounding provocative but do you have the IPR and gerber files for the PCBs so you can get more manufactured (if you chose to)? I ask because if it's a case of once the stock you have is gone there isn't any more then doesn't that put Signal Transfer back to the same situation?
