The microphone input and audio output are some of the two most important parts of the TCM-450, as the microphone allows you to record yourself or other objects on the tape recorder and the audio output port allows for the use of headphones. | | | When desoldering the audio output and microphone input you should use some kind of clamp to hold the PCB. | | You must be careful when desoldering as there are components that are very close to audio output and microphone input, and you can end up desoldering the components. If this happens you will have to solder the components back on, which can be very difficult even tofor the most experienced professional. You must be careful when removing the parts as you don't want to rip anything out in the partsprocess. The order does not matter, and you do not need to remove one forbefore the other. |
