Default Academy Belt Drive Turntable

I got it for free, it seems to be working but I don't have a record to test it at the moment.

It is made in China, I don't know if "Academy" is a known brand...

I took some photos.

What good is a turntable if you don't have any records?

Looks like a typical cheap stereo from the early 90s. Don't expect it to sound fabulous.

There were four mass killing attempts that week. Only one made the news because it helped the agreed upon media narrative.

Oregon. NOT a gun free zone. Shooter confronted by permit holder. Shooter commits suicide. Only a few casualties.
Texas. NOT a gun free zone. Shooter killed immediately by off duty cop. Only a few casualties.
Connecticut. GUN FREE ZONE. Shooters kills until the police arrive. Suicide. 26 dead.
China. GUN FREE COUNTRY. A guy with a KNIFE stabs 22 children.

So much for "Knives have legitimate purposes, guns do not."

Social networking is for socialists.

Oh wow! Is that what I think it is near the bottom left corner of the PCB? A large cap with no vent stamp? Replace it with a panny and overvolt it
