Next Restoration Project- 1929 Victor R-32 Radio
#13

Arran,

Not to be argumentative, but I have an RE-45 and it does not have a microphone, nor a jack to plug in the microphone, and no weights to add to the tone arm.  I also have an RE-75, the next model up and it does not have any jacks or connections for a microphone either.  Also, neither set has any additional circuitry for a recording amplifier.  A look at the schematic for these models in Rider's shows no recording facilities.  Only playback of records.  Might it be another model you are thinking about?  I see you are in Canada.  Perhaps you are thinking of a model that was sold only in Canada and not the U.S.

With reference to the Micro-Synchronous Tuning, I have always thought it was an effective way to allow the set to track properly and have good sensitivity and selectivity.  

Gilbert
