This looks like a cross breed. A lot of US parts
but the PCB looks Jap. Still see lots of battery
TT's in use at record shows. Also when the Jamaican
apple pickers were in town they had them & I sold
lots of fork needles. On there day off they would
have a big rum & records party.

Hey Mon! I wonder how long the "D" cells lasted? Carbon-zinc cells were rated for one ampere-hour. According to the ratings label, it states: 120V, 30W. It must be close to 30 watts, running from batteries.
