Nice machine. One of the reasons, the radio goes out of line, is, the pointer housing, catches on raised solder joints. A simple answer is, put a piece of card over the board. This allows the pointer to move freely, without snagging.

Congrats !! The M70 is the epitome of the

classic boombox styling of the early 1980s.

When you are done put the music loud and dance !

 

PS:We need to see pics of the outside parts too !!

Fab box but I prefer the outside if I'm honest

 

Internal pics are actually hugely useful for anyone not sure of doing a repair so thanks for posting...done mine so I know the inside but useful for those who haven't

I don't have a 70 but it certainly looks better on the outside

i have a m70 i bought lately and compaired  to the m90 my thoughts are that... the are as equally good as they are equally different or in other words they both rock and it great to own them both!!!

I ve noticed

that it is missing a screw that

holds the tape door in place.

Where one can find this kind of screws for any

box since there are quite a lot of boxes that

are using them for this purpose..

Anyone that knows it would be of great help.


Oh and Your JVC BB lookS nice on the outside too!!
