Rich;
I was not sure whether the pictures would show up or not, sometimes they will not on the browser I am using, but then again the ARF has had a numbers of changes since that was posted, what servers were used, and so on. I should see whether the Musicaire/Sentinel dial is still operational, I think that the issues with the disk have more to do with it being an early plastic that just didn't age well rather then being heat related, I assume it was some type of celluloid. Even a lot of modern plastic doesn't age well, like that used in plastic containers, I've had old containers where they were inside, not exposed to sunlight, not exposed to heat, then I try picking one up and the side will just break out of it, but I have some from the 1980s that are still fine.
Regards
Arran
