There's a lot of useful information on that site, Cardigan. Thanks for the link to it. I'm less familiar with Collaro Changers than BSR & Garrard ones, and didn't know, e.g., that they can automatically detect 'odd' record diameters, such as the 9", 8",, and even 5" diameter 78s issued before WW2. At the moment, the changer is working OK and dropping most records , so, for now I'll leave well alone, having spent some time prior to repairing the EAR Player in which this deck is fitted, cleaning, adjusting, & relubricating the mechanism, although I didn't remove or dismantle the record dropping mechanism.
