Hi Leon. I have found that this thing has been tampered with. The lamp stopped working and then started working again. When I pulled the lamp cover I found the two wires has been cut and then taped back together. It also only had a 50w lamp in it. I tried an EFP 12v 100w lamp and it wouldn't fit properly and blew in a matter of seconds. The lamp housing instructions are written in Japanese except for 12v 100w. Wonder if this is possibly some of the problem?

What I can see is that The antenna is used to pickup FM signals to play tru the machine ? You have a three way switch. That's , mono, stereo, FM. When you move the switch to FM it cuts the amp off ! The green led light comes on. A strange function! You can hear sound when your stereo receiver is on. And the antenna is pulled all the way up! Call it wireless sound! Leon Norris.

Forgive me for being somewhat slow on the uptake here.
What is the idea of having FM available through the projector? I've not come across this anywhere else before.

Mike, It seems to be on the GS800 models. Or some of them! You can send a signal to your FM receiver and play your films . the wireless way!
