Cool, when I went on from the 62 to my 68 GTO, I did exactly that with a Craig Powerplay & Jensen coaxials on the rear deck. 8 tracks were a trip. How many carts did you see along side the road with all the tape spun out?

It seems that alot of your are audiophiles. Maybe someone can help me. I was wondering what equipment to use copy analog sources like LP's to a USB or other digital format? I currently use EAC to transfer CD's to a USB for use in my Burban.

Thanks in advance.

Back to those... my uncle has a 60's flavor Grundig Majestic console; high gloss finish, all tubes. The front tilts forward to expose the controls. Still works, although the speakers are shot.

That's a classic for sure!

I remember my dad fixing the tube TV. Going with him to the grocery store (I think it was) where they had a tube test stand. Then you buy the ones you need. Back in business! Now I can return to being the human remote control! LOL! Also the antenna adjustment technician!

Make sure you get enuf aluminum foil on the rabbit ears for better reception!

HA! Yep! My dad had one TV with a rotary channel dial and a single button remote! I just tried to find a picture of it. No luck. But you just held the button down and the dial slowly rotated one channel at a time. Crazy to think about now.

If you have a turntable then an A to D converter like this might be the ticket:

I've never used one myself. If you do not have a turntable then you can go after a turntable that includes a USB out.

Old school speakers my brother bought in 78-79 area, Wharfdale E70's. Plus an old Pioneer receiver I am still using today in the shop,
Not with those speakers though.

I know plenty of you are old enough to probably remember the big roof mounted outdoor TV antennas that rotated with an electric motor.
A control box sat on top of our TV with a dial marked North - South - East - West
We had tape markers labeled for the best reception spot for each of the 4 channels.
Change the channel - change the antenna setting.

Thank you for the information. Looks like I have homework now. 🙂

I've recently become a "Cut the Cable" guy. Just got sick and tired of shelling out the massive green backs every month to Comcast (Xfinity). Using a huge antenna up in the attic left by the PO and a new programmable rotator, I've transitioned to Over The Air (OTA). Then, another company came into the neighborhood with fiber, prior to that Comcast was the only choice. So by-by Xfinity oh boo hoo.
