The thing looks just like my Sony dictaphone, just that mine's black. Congrats on 100K!

Well, you can use anything that is working. Even something from the past. If it's working, it is usable and this will do. Name it, VHS tape - compact cassette - vinyl - reel to reel - pencil with a piece of paper to write!!! This is the analog form of life. If you know how to use them, you are going one step further in your life, because you will not stuck if wireless, clouds & unmaterial things will vanish some day. So, you have it-you use it. Appreciations to Mr 12voltvids

I have one of those that has a really bad Hiss on play back,, I wonder if that is the playback head out of alignment?

I have two Fisher Micro Cassette Recorders Model No. PH-M85. It works so far but if you record on slow speed the sound is totaly distorded like a broken Amp but in normal speed it records fine. What can that be?

[@Bluethunderboom]

I happen to have a blank microcassette and it is never been used. I don't know that there is a possibility that has a microphone input or line input from the microcassette player that I can test them out by record the TTS voice to the microcassette and play it back and see how it turns out. =/

Great job !!

I have a newer version of this machine. It needs a new speaker though, which is almost impossible to find locally (4Ω 0.25W).

Well that didn't take you long to fix :-D Why would anyone want a micro recorder in this day and age, unless they are a collector maybe. The case colour reminds me of old bakealite valve radios.

I have not watched you in a while Dave. Good to be able to watch you again. I have a flat screen from a friend: Philips 37 inch, oled type tv with Roku that wont come on, wont reset... any ideas?

[@rawr51919]

Sounds like a power issue. Does it show any signs of life? Any lights when you plug it in?
