SD-1 is now working
Thanks Dannat and Mekon for your input here. I looked up Peter Tan and seems a good resource. I sent an email but still waiting to hear whether he can source a replacement SD-1 or repair.
This weekend I attended a garage sale locally and acquired a 240/10v telephone equipment (no idea what) transformer in a mixed lot of stuff and just as an exercise tried it out on the SD-1 and lo! i have output!
The manual says to use a power voltage of 6.5 to 12v so maybe the other transformer (non original- but supposedly 12v) I was using may have just been a little higher or perhaps the socket/plug geometry was a little off.
I will still follow up with Peter Tan as his Suneast site seems a good resource for maybe hard to find things.
Cheers Geoff
