Am I crazy to post a picture and wonder if anyone can tell me what it might be based on the components. I'm sure it's a kit of some kind. I found it in my uncle's stuff. He was an audiophile and an electronic engineer.
Next step would be, getting instructions to piece it together. Could be fun?!

What does the chip say on it? That's the key piece to the whole puzzle.
That, and are there any words or numbers on the circuit board?

The chip says "Cyberdyne Systems"
It says BA1404
142 156
If you flip the board over, near the hole that is in the upper left corner of the current photo placement there is 241. Also there is a label stating +9v. Not far from the hole.

Nice one guys - I just wasted at least 5 minutes trying to formulate a joke that maybe your Chip was from a Model 101.
Only to realize I was a little late to the party when I recognized that Chip name while looking up the Model 101.
Well played.

Interesting. Some sort of transmitter with 3 rca connectors, if they are indeed part of the kit.
That's the first time I've seen lmgtfy!

I'm guessing L/R and antenna, but I don't know what the third one's for really. Do the search and then hit "images" and try to find a circuit board that looks like yours to see how it's stuffed and things are laid out. When I hit "images" schemos and stuffed pcbs came up in spades.

Great idea. I was just wondering how I'd find the exact kit.
Duh, especially after contemplating lmgtfy you think I would have thought of it.

Larry, that one is super close but there are a couple different items in my bag in comparison. I would imagine though that it is generally the same thing so that's cool.
I am building yet another pair of the Tape Op Omnis, then starting on a couple distortion pedals from the Electronics Projects for Musicians selection. Maybe then I'll come back to this one and see if I can't figure it out.
