Just wondering whether the Saturday Night discussion forum on Phono-L will be up and running again at some point. Many of us enjoy this Saturday Night Phono Chat, and are of course hoping that it will be back in action soon. Thanks Loran!!

I had everything else. It takes the VTLA style motor board which sits on top instead of being inset. I found a motor board and motor and it fits perfectly down to the screw holes except for one problem. The crank shaft on the motor sits about 1/4 too high for the crank. It's in exactly the right place, just a bit high. Does anyone know if there are thinner motor boards for this type of machine? The only other machine I have with top mounted motor boards is a Victrola XII which has a thinner and slightly different setup than a XVI. Any suggestions or ideas out there?

Maybe someone left off the washers (felt or rubber, I'm not sure) that were probably between motor and board.
