RCA Victor 3VF305 restoration

Post by philwest88 on Tue Dec 06, 2011 11:25 am

My daughter, who loves antiques, has found an RCA Victor 3VF305 console stereo in need of repair. The tone arm and turntable appear to work OK, but there is no stylus. Any ideas on where I can find one?

Just a clue but....
I'd get the chassis overhauled and re-capped first - before you start burning up output tubes transformers and rectifiers.
That is, of course, if it hasn't been done recently.

Gary also can help on rebuilt idler wheels. He is reasonable, in my opinion.
If it sounds like a plug for him, it is. I have bought alot from him, and, like him.

The changer would be the least of my worries...
