Great video Richard. Hope you get it going the way it is supposed to be. I love the look of this turntable with the nice wood cabinet. Take care

Hi Richard
Yes - its on the list I am in the middle of the Decca 73 volume door which are coming along well.
Keep your eye out for more updates from my channel.
All the best
Richard

Richard, that will be a nice little turntable. I have always liked the looks of those mid 70's Philips machines, I hear that now the "Electronic" models like the 312 can be a bit of a problem now.

Hi
Really nice to hear I chose a good model then.
Warm regards
Richard

Hi, a dumb question maybe but what does the right switch do under the arm with all the numbers on it?

[@spannerworks1]

Hi it’s the size of the record

[@dwr4992]

Hey Richard, did you complete your overhaul of this deck? I am interested in your thoughts on it's sound. D

Hey, can you tell me the size of the belt please ? I can't find on internet

[@paulkelly7549]

Hi Felix I too would like to know the belt size as I have the deck with no belt..

[@AudioElectronicsChicago]

Philips is great but hard to work on them.
I had the 212 one and I went through hell till I got it going

[@spannerworks1]

Hi
Many thanks and I like a challenge LOL
Warm regards
Richard

You need skills how to do this, first introduce the player, then make a list of things you need to work on.
After the introduction, you can show what repairs you do and why.
When finished all repairs, show the working model.
Why start filming as you audience does not understand what it is first !
Good luck improving your UA-cam skills !
