Re: New Chineese Victrola
I've got a better one; I'm going to design one with a gramophone, cylinder player/recorder, mechanical scanning disc television and dual vacuum tube wireless receivers (one for the 'TV' signal and one for the sound, of course
), that projects lantern slides through the phonograph horn. Truly a more authentic vintage "entertainment center" than the Chinese version...

I'll be very interested in buying that, but only if it also has a wire recorder...scullylathe wrote:I've got a better one; I'm going to design one with a gramophone, cylinder player/recorder, mechanical scanning disc television and dual vacuum tube wireless receivers (one for the 'TV' signal and one for the sound, of course), that projects lantern slides through the phonograph horn.
