Wireless RP-2 governor?
#13

Well, agree with all (I know, Impossible,) but there are 50 cycle AC motors and of course 25 cycle moters, and who knows what else in the whole wide world out there, and some aging idler wheels have been "shaved down" to approximate roundness or recapped inaccurately, and bushings and bearings and lubes and other wonderful stuff on changers and turntables can be daunting. I can recall a turntable that used a clock motor and had to be "trained" to start in the proper direction, I believe it was Thorens, but anyway sold nicely way back when. When asked, I told them that they had two plants, one in Switzerland, the other in Australia and that's how bath tubs drain too. Also remember stuff that could equally be used for turning rather large pottery.

Then there was the Fisher Lincoln, which would play one side of an LP, and then turn it over and play the other side. Well I was a teenager then and mis-spent much of my youth in a distributer-jobber-retailer while going to junior and senior high school and home on breaks from college in my town. Different life after that, was a good 3 decades until I returned to hobby, which I now know is not all that unusual.

Don't know what I had for breakfast yesterday, but do remember some of these tidbits. Anyway, best to all, and "keep the hits on hitting."

Well, anyway, let's all be constructive and supportive of every one of the contributors. I've learned more about "stuff" in the last couple of years since I retired than I knew ever. Best to all and everyone.
