[ARSCLIST] OT? Need to ID the maker of a transcription-size turntable
Hello ARSC folks,
I'm hoping to retore an old transcription-sized turntable I rescued
from a junk-shop this weekend. The nameplate is long gone, as are
the tonearm and idler wheel. It seems the biggest hurdle may be
learning who the manufacturer was.
It was capable of playing four speeds, and has pitch control. The
twelve-inch platter has a white rubber mat. The motor seems to work
fine, though it will need fresh mounts. Here's what the nameplate on
the motor says, in case that offers any clues:
NEAT 4 pole induction motor
M-500 Single phase Shaded pole type
Voltage 100V Cycle 50 or 60 c/s
Speed 1300/1600 rpm Input 12/11 VA
NEAT ONKYO DENKI CO.. LTD. JAPAN
If anyone is curious enough to want to see jpegs, I'm sure I can find
some website to post them to. I'll very much appreciate any help
IDing the manufacturer, or any advice about other on-line resources
that might be more ready for this riddle.
ARSC and ye shall receive?
Best,
Rod Brown
