Fozgometer

I bought a demo Fozgometer a while back and it didn't work when I got it. I contacted the importer and they said some units have an issue with the meter connections shorting out on the aluminum box ( a little too tight a fit). Sure enough that was my problem, a piece of strategically placed tape solved the problem. If you have an unpainted internal surface or obvious wear on the bottom of the box then this could be your problem.

Thanks.....changed the battery..no help, no short on the meter. It is a bad brand new Ortofon cartridge. Back it goes.

I tried one recently...gave a funny reading and the cartridge did not look right (really tilted) I went back to what looked right and fine tuned by ear from there...

Not sure if it was user error...but just not that hard to use...

Have you tried connecting the meter to the output of the phonostage or the preamp? A lot of cartridges don't have enough output for the meter to work straight off the cartridge.

Yes...it is a new Ortofon that was manufactured with internal improper connections. Thanks
