  1. Thanks Ksarul for your assistance. I checked all the things you mentioned but it all seems fine. The head makes good contact with the tape, the tape itself is brand new but I looked it over anyway and its fine. I opened the machine back up and cleaned the switch on the circuit board that is engaged when it is recording but it didn't help. I could check some voltages on the board, but without a schematic I'm pretty much lost. So, I went ahead and bought another recorder off of e-pay. Here's hoping this one isn't a dud too. Thanks everyone for the replies.
  2. Thanks Retrospect for the link. Well, I guess if all else fails I can give e-pay another shot.
  3. Hi All, I'm new to the TI 99/4A world and I recently purchased a program recorder off of e-bay. Well, as luck would have it, it's a partial dud. It records and plays but the volume is so low (even with the volume control all the way up) the computer cannot read the data when I try to load it. I tried recording my own voice and its very low volume also. I tried cleaning the playback/record head and replacing some of the electrolytic capacitors on the board but that did no good. Without a schematic I'm really shooting in the dark here. So I guess my question is, has anyone else run into this problem and if so what did you do to resolve it? Anyone have a schematic? Failing that anyone have a TI Program Recorder they'd consider parting with at a reasonable price? Thanks in advance, ceemill
