I ran across this crazy ad, and all the sudden I need one. I guess I need a 16" turntable to go with it. Has anyone ever seen one, or have one for sale?

After a over a year, KrisD decided to sell me the elusive and mysterious Presto TL-10 "Turntable to Reel to Reel adapter". It's a brilliantly simple and ridiculously silly "technological bridge" piece of gear designed for budget minded radio stations to be able to transition from content delivered on 16" transcription discs to content delivered in tape format. No need to buy a full blown tape deck with motors and electronics just to play back a tape when you already have a motor (in a turntable), and a mix board complete with pre-amps!

More on this in a new post... But here it is! How cool is this gizmo?
Thanks to KrisD for selling it to me. I'm thrilled to have it, and will take good care of it!

Does anyone have any additional info (owners manual, schematic for EQ switch and such)?
