Well guys...the evolution continues...Tha'BASSment tweaks continue and added family members ruled that I change the formation ever so slightly to "fit it all in". Some residents have been relegated to the lab until I get ready to sell them to make way for the others. As you can tell, I was inspired by Star Wars classic TIE Fighter and Battlestar Galactica Cylon Raiders attack formations when thinking of how I'd do it. :-D

Here is the video tour of the setup...

Now aside from all that I seem to have stumbled upon some POS Victor Corp. box that everyone's all a-ga-ga over. Whilst trolling one of the thrifities on my way in from work last week, I couldn't help but feel sorry for the creature. I mean, all the hype, the yadda yadda...the ePay going rates...which I told myself I'd never go for to get one fully working even if dirty... :thumbsdown:

Well, I figured I couldn't go wrong for a paltry four dollars...I could always take it out back and let Ivory, my Siberian Husky have at it...or just shoot it. :lol:

So here it is, a fully functional, if missing an antenna, one door screw, and not too dirty...JVC RC-M70JW. :lol:

I've listened to it quite a bit since I got it, remembered what they sounded like as a kid...and gotta admit...if I gotta have another JVC POS in the collection as a keeper, then this is one of them. Guess I'll clean it up...it's the least I can do. :lol:

BTW...Whaddaya think of the BETABrite LED sign? :-D

I'll give you $5.00 for it... :w00t: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: ...the POS, that is.

But only if you don't tell anyone that I bought the POS. Gotta maintain appearances, ya know. ;-)



All kidding aside, cheese & rice man, that's what I call a real deal. When it comes time for me to get another, I only hope to have half the luck, although from what you've said before you're in the thrifts a lot. Congratulations and way to go!

That's just crazy man... 4 dollars, hardly worth the effort of them putting a price tag on it... :lol: They should've just given you it for FREE

FOUR DOLLARS!!! $4??? That looks better than the one I just bought!!! I wish my thrift shops had anything, I've been checking them all lately. I've yet to see a single 80's boombox. One of these days...

Ncie Morphing sign. I can tell it has the RGB tech going there. Different fonts are cool looking. You did a good job using the right fonts for the different brands.

Cheers,

Thanks for the tour man....the set up looks great! I had a chance to pick up a sign like that and I turned it down. :-/ Now that I see what could be done with it, I wish I would have gotten it.

Is it me, or do you got some Venus Flytrap from WKRP going on?

Amazing you found an M70 for $4 :w00t: S-C-O-R-E. Even if you don't like it...clean it, sell it, add something else to the collection!

4 bucks, I always said those m70's were overpriced.
I cant believe you got suckered into buying it, the shopkeep must be laughing hid tits off ;-)
