Yes, it is a DVD player, a cheap one I got a $20 piece of garbage, which I got as a source for working on my CTC-16XL, went ultra cheap so if it was taken out by the HV or whatever, I would not lose anything.
I made the DVDs myself from videos I had on my system so it would be macrovision free.
I put in the contrast mod today, and it does work, not as dramatically as it did in the color set I took it from but it works, most likely cause the CTC-16 has 10v on the cathode at that point, and this thing has about 3v, so perhaps I will put in a larger cap than 50mfd.
I'm hoping that the other 3 peaking coils show up this week, shipped 4/14 from Canada, this pandemic has slowed all mail down
I see that at least the cheap LCR meter I sent for is in the country now, and may be here this week.
no idea when the digital RF generator will show up, when it does I can hopefully clear up that last bit of snow.
