****** MARANTZ* PMD201/ CP130 CASSETTE MACHINES ******
****** "BV" BROADCAST CONVERSION (TEMPORARY SHEET) ******
GEMTEK SYSTEMS "BV" conversion to the PMD201 / CP130 makes the machines
more
rugged for the world of professional journalism. For news gathering,
these
machines are now finding favour with leading UK broadcasters.
The "BV" modification replaces the usual side connector plate with its
3.5mm
microphone jack with a broadcast standard XLR input, gold plated to. To
give
better connectivity to other broadcast equipment, the machine also gets
a XLR
output, which is electronically balanced and delivers +4 dBu into a
mixer
input for a "0" VU recorded signal.
A single input mode switch selects between microphone (mic) input, mic
-15dB
and "LINE" input level. Note that in line mode, the input "phono"
connector
still works at domestic levels, while the XLR input is less sensitive
for
"professional" line levels.
Gemtek Systems has been modifying Marantz portable cassette machines
for about
three years with the full approval of MARANTZ Hi-Fi U.K. Limited. We
modify
customers own machines as well as suppling new machines with full
manufacturers
warrantie. These modified machines are used by Independent Radio News
Ltd,
Capital Radio PLC and BBC local radio stations.
Sarah Gosling is probably the UK's, even Europe's, most

portable cassette service engineer, with 30 years of service experience
behind
her.
