I won this with an absentee bid at auction about a week ago and had some requests to share it with everyone when I received it. I made a very quick video demonstrating it, but was in a hurry and will make another soon. This was the first try and it needs some tweaking. I played it on a Pathé 50 that I picked up a couple days ago. I haven't worked on the phonograph at all. The reproducer is in horrible shape so the sound is very bad. The lighting is poor as well so as soon as I get a chance I will post a quality video with ample light, a better phono and maybe a better selection of music!
But for now, just wanted to share as I thought it was pretty interesting. I do have one question though. If this plays a record continuously and is started on a full crank, wouldn't it be bad for the record due to the "one play per needle" rule? With a full crank a strong phonograph may play a selection several time when utilizing this repeater. Thoughts?
