Hi Roger here , Troffmeister

my lovely blue kit is in the pic gallery of old

firstly big thanks to whoever , for the doc with sds7 kits 1 to 39 listed , really appreciate that file )

anyhow pic gallery here of sds7 from attic in last few days

my sds7 has been in attic for 5 years , i have had the kit new 1 owner from 1984 , just bought the kit back down to set up  / incorporate with my yamaha dtxtreme 2s kit

the sds7 battery is porked and all kits gone , tho i did numerically key back in my fave custom kit , the brain works , sounds ok , and it seems to hold the prog so far !

to cut a long story short i need following

1  to pay someone to fix the battery issue as per this article perhaps 

 

2 my increment wheel on sds7 front needs a service , seems a little loose and stiff but works ?

i can't do these jobs myself , as don;t want to pork the sds7 brain

my kit was mended in past by Dave Simmons in person after factory closed , he was doing repairs in sun lane Hitchin then, i met him , and i have played on huge 12 piece sds7 with angel choir eprom sds1 pad in factory demo room back in 80s in st albans factory
