i was just given an old wilcox gay recordio, all the motors and tubes and whatever seem to be fine, but i cant get any sound to cut! there is a faint (and distorted) audible signal when i plugged my amplifier through it into headphones,
i tried cutting a signal of my amp through onto the underside of a cd, but it just turns out to be a blank groove, what do i need to do?
-new needle?
-deeper cut?
-fix line in input?
-replace guts?
if someone could let me know that would be awesome..

1. Does the radio work?
2. Are you trying to use the amplifier in the Recordio, or are you just connecting your amplifier to the cutting head? If the latter, the crystal in the cutter could be shot, or you may not have a high enough output voltage to drive the crystal (it's considerably higher than what drives the speaker).
