HI Grumpy
I ordered one of the photo cells you mentioned in your commets and installed it  with two sided tape. It works but
it is very loud and distorted, sounds like it overdriving the phono input. Did you do anything to the amp input? Mine
sounds like it is putting to much to the preamp for the phono. It is so distorted I cannot make out what is being
said, but very loud. Icon_eek I have adjusted the light and the mirror using the comments on Chucks web page. Any help?
