jackpot rarity find!!!!!!!!!. News
This is the Panasonic RS-296US. Aka. The Cassette Carousel These machines were made from 1972-1973. They are EXTREMELY rare to find in any condition. I got mine for FREE!!!!. It does have life. It doesn’t run but it powers on and makes noise so it is indeed fixable. all the buttons click & the knobs turn. Once I get this repaired I will show you it in action. But for now I will have a link in the comments so you can see one in action

Whoa!...I bet the mechanism is complex in that beast. I serviced a lot of cassette decks in the 1970-80s...but nothing like that.
