ITC cart machine issue...

With Pizza you have to use a 1KW AM transmitter. One night a listener brough some to the station, I slipped the box on top of the CCA 1KW, UNFORTUNATELY I blocked part of exhaust airflow. After a bit the CCA did what it was supposed to do, SHUT DOWN! I called the Chief, he came down and did a pizza boxextamy and we were back. Fortunately he liked the pizza as well, still nice and warm!

Yup... I'm back... ;D

Well, I've put one of my six ITC Delta aside for parts. The tape wobbled due to an non perpendicular capstan shaft... If in the beginning it would go "into place" after a few minutes of FF, seems that now it's worthless... Well, 5 machines left... Better said... 4 1/2.

One of them, when running a blank cart, has such a level of noise in one of the channels, like if I had the volume turned to max. This happends in one channel only. While playing a recorded cart I do notice the noise, but the recorded level between channels is balanced. Putting the machine running without a cart: no noise at all is noticed. I've swapped the amp card from the other machines and the problem remained.

Any hints? TIA...

Regards
Back to the topic... Noise problem fixed.. PB head replaced using the defective capstan cart machine one. Anyway, Thanks for the hints guys.
