The Giveaway Thread

Hi jai,

If you are going to junk it, would like to have it. I stay in wind Tunnel Road and pretty closeby.

Can you tell me the specifications (height and breath). It looks tall.

Thanks,
Prem

The F5 pcb, ebay kits and transformers have been handed over/couriered.
As the pc cabinet has not been picked up, it is available once again
The KT88 tube dampers are still available.

I am relocating to my new house on Saturday. The PC Cabinet will be junked if not picked up by then.

You are welcome to pick it up. The rack is a little over 6 ft tall and 2-2.5ft in breadth.

This thread has more details : http://www.hifivision.com/sale-owner/30330-babel-cd-dvd-storage-rack.html

The PC cabinet has been junked so no longer available. The CD rack is on hold for an FM. The KT88 tube dampers are still available.

I have a couple of 10" Scotch 700 9-track 1/2" tape reels... and Sony Video Tape V-32 that I no longer need. They were used on a wide variety of vintage Mini and Mainframe computers Systems such as AS/400(?) VAX, DEC, IBM, HP, Sun etc... Also labeled as 6250 CPI... each reel has the locking keeper ring around the outside edge.
I found an auction on EBay, someone selling the same thing SCOTCH 700 Computer Tape 6250 CPI New (LOT OF 2) (Rs. 8880)
any reel to reel machines around? Can it be possibly used as audio tape any idea about this stuff?
I thought magnetic tape worked in any system as long as it was the proper width... just read something about the thickness being an issue as well?
The whole lot is available for free if you pay for the shipping (or pick them up @ Hyd). I would prefer to send all the tapes at once rather than sending single tapes to people. If you are interested, please contact me. If no one is interested, they are going in the disposal box at work.

Hi crosstalk,

Thanks for your interest in Scotch tapes. I wish to tell you my bitter experience in shipping items to Kolkata in my earlier giveaway post... even though the item was for personal use and not for sale... the courier wants Form 50A, to accept the shipment into West Bengal.

Any chance you can organize to collect them from Hyd, thru any of your friends/relatives (or use Hifivision Pony Express)

Regards
 
My sincere apologies for the inordinate delay in sorting out the CDs. In addition to settling up, I had a lot of catching up to do with enormous pending work at my new work place and I hardly had any time for anything else. I was not able to spare time to set up my speakers and have been away from music for about 6 months now!

I've been able to sort out the CDs. The following members have sent me their addresses:-

kneo
RMCWS
Umapati
Santy
mowgli80
Jaivelu
kneo

I've sorted and kept the CDs for packing which I intend to do tonight. Of the above members' CDs, I could not find the following CDs.

Umapati - Yuvraaj & Mukesh Ki Yaadein
Kneo - Mukesh (May be the same as above)
Jaivelu - Taalisma
Vardesh - Dil hi dil mein

I'll despatch the CDs and update the status here.

I remember a CD of Mukesh songs sung by some random guy. Some cd had different poster and different cd inside. I remember seeing Dil hi dil mein cd cover. I remember seeing Yuuvraaj cd (with scratches)
 
Not directly related to AV but a friend gave me a D-Link router [DI-704UP] last week requesting that I give it away to anyone who will use it. I'm offering this to anyone who has use of it.

It's been used for maybe 2 days and is like new. Not tested by me. Please read up about this model to see what it is capable of and what it CANNOT do before expressing interest. I'll ship by courier at your cost. No local pickup - I have no wish to meet you :ohyeah:

Please do not PM me - my in-box is full. All expressions of interest to be posted on this thread.
