Dear all,
I was browsing a local junk store and I could not resist the temptation to preserve it.
The general appearance was very good so I bought it reaaaaaly cheap.
First attempt to power on was unsuccessful.
Found a copy of the manual for the 148 online and downloaded it.
After opening the case, the first culprit was evident -- A blown component, probably a Tantalum capacitor (see picture).
Unfortunately the 148A has a different circuit from the 148 and I need to find this part id.
Can anyone help me on this issue.
Thanks
