Well, I won't be able to pick it up till later next month. It's a linear tracker with a p-mount. It's been on a shelf in her basement for probably 10 years. I remember using it right after she got it back in the late 70's. I really don't think it was ever used a lot.
I'm sure the contact relays will need to be sprayed and the rails for the arm cleaned and lubed. Hopefully that is it. I'll have to check and see how to adjust the tracking force on these as well.
I'd like to get a decent 1200 or P3 or the like sometime next spring (hint-hint for any of you GPAF people who have a decent entry level table you may want to part with next year!) , but I'm not sure I'm up to dealing with fixing a used one since I have no experience with TT's at all.
