Rock-Ola Rhapsody 160 tech qestion
Hello everyone.
I have a 1963 Rock-Ola Rhapsody 160. I've been reading this newsgroup for a few months now since I acquired my jukebox. The problem I'm having is, my Jukebox takes quite a while to warm up or just to start playing selections. It has been getting worse lately, it use to start OK but then it would quit during some selections and start up again, now it's taking what could be up to 2 - 3 hours to start playing the selection. But once it starts playing a playlist it's fine, like if I select 10 song it will play them no problem back to back, once it returns to its start position it will take forever to start playing again. I have no idea at where to start with this, my best guess would be a vacuum tube needs replacing???? Thank you for your time and, any help would be greatly appreciated. Alex |

Alex Well Alex, There is the obvious. Have the elctronics looked at by a pro, meaning sending the amp and selection reciever to say Bill Bickers or somebody like that. http://www.jukeboxamprepair.com Unless the electronics have already been recapped, just changing tubes won't help much. |
