That sounds like there is a problem with the power supply. It could be a number of things: faulty mains transformer; faulty diodes or bridge...

Yes, there are two 2.5A quick-blow fuses on each of the power amplifier boards. They are there to protect the amplifier power output stages from...

18C and cloudy.

Is it a Sugden A21se Signature? If so, the fuse is under the mains connector on the rear of the amplifier, to the right of the speaker connections.

After eighteen months you would have thought it would have sold, but we are in hard times and money is short. Have you tried eBay?

You could ask your local branch of Timpsons if they can recommend a watch repairer. Or if the new mechanism was another Seiko movement, then try a...

Reached 24.5C today, hot and sweaty weather. This afternoon I assembled a bookcase and when I had finished I needed another shower.

Yes, I know what you mean. A few years ago I took a lot of photographic art books to Oxfam and all were in very good condition. One was by David...

20C with bright sunshine. :)

We were at a boot sale today. At times it was quite warm and at other times quite windy. Boot sales depress me, but my partner loves them: both...

You could be on to something there Steve. I 'switch off' my PC by selecting "Shut down and switch off" without actually switching off at the wall...

Much of my audio system is designed to be left in standby mode when not in use, thus I can understand why when my CDP 'woke up' without a disc in it...

Reached 28C here after lunch, but was windy so felt cooler.

We had a power cut last night at 21:00 which lasted until 00:30 this morning. Haven’t had a power cut for years now, and it was a totally new...

16C and cloudy.

Nice one Steve.

We have just spent a few days in Lyon, France, and as is my wont drunk the local Rhône wine. To remind us of an enjoyable time, I picked up a bottle...

Depending on the earthing system your electricity supply provider has used (either one of the following: TN-C; TN-S, or TN-CS), it can be dangerous...

Since only the motor and the control switches/levers remain of the original deck, it can hardly be called a 301. And despite the admirable...

You would have thought predictive texting would have come up with "man-made" over "nan-made" (sic), whereas it was just me, my fat thumb and the...

4C and sunny. The heating is on, and I've zipped in the fleece into my jacket.

12 September 1440 Eton College was founded by Henry VI for 25 poor and needy scholars. Prefects were told to look for 'ill-kempt heads, unwashed...

Looks good Roy.

Nice one Steve.

I like that one Roy, though IMHO it would look better with a leather strap.

"Breath (in the Air)"? But if you have disabled the recycling mode and are stuck in a traffic jam, then it might be "Brain Damage", caused by the...
