Was talking to my dad asking if he knew what a few of the boxes Im looking at were like and he told me that it wasnt a sanyo I had but a hitachi.

Ive not come across a completely familiar one yet though, from what I remember it was a single deck, single ariel with 2 round speakers and a counter I think, I dont remember it having top mounted buttons either.

Well its all settled now, its not quite the same as what I remember but I took a risk on an untested Hitachi on which Ill post how I get on.
