you'll probably end up making your pitch worse than it already is if you don't know what you're doing
have you tested to see how accurate your pitch is?
look at the dots on the platter and the little diagram that explains them just beside the power button
each individual dot should appear to stand still under the red power light when the pitch is at the correct speed for that dot (i.e. the top on should stand still at -3.3, big middle dot should stand still at 0, etc. etc.)
as long as you don't have a double 0, and the numbers aren't completely off...i think you're fine
ive never seen a tech that was exactly on...most are about 1.5% off in either direction
however the problem you're describing doesn't sound like your pitch callibration is off...
all that screw does it changes how fast the platter will spin when you move the pitch up and down...
what you're describing is that your pitch is drifting and not sustaining itself (i.e. say you have it at 2.5%, its drifting between 2.3% & 2.7%)
if this is the case i have no clue how to fix that
though maybe you might just need more practice? |
I used a few diff. screwdrivers & pliers, soldering iron, bulb......., ect.
Don't mean to sound harsh but I don't think your pentium thingy is enough to pull off that repair
