Auricon user group open to all - 16mm film as well as optical sound

[James Honeycutt]

Hello friends...

The Auricon Optical Sound Users group was started in March of 2007. The group is still going strong and is free to join, and we never ask for any money. The group started on the free Yahoo users groups.  When that went away, we moved to Group IO.  We collect Auricon literature, develop help documents on camera and optical sound amp repair, supply modern battery packs for powering older Auricon vacuum tube optical sound amps who's old time batteries from the 1940s - 1970s batteries are no longer available.  Some schematics are available for modern solid state amps are available and a new modern solid state amp (pre built as well as a kit) is in the works.   Most members are in the US, but we have members in Canada, England, the EU, Australia, and other places.  Polite conversation only please.

Here is a link to join the users group:

Very nice.

I have some Auricon literature and many photos of the many Auricon cameras I have owned over the years, so I hope to post some material on the users group in the future.

Hello Frank...

I am sure the many members of the Auricon group would appreciate any of your photos, literature and information you can bring.

If you join, I can post links to the photo area and the literature area if that is not clear.  Feel free to down load anything that you might find helpful.

I look forward to joining the group.

best,

Jack
