Mike, I should mention that it was Doug who first told me about the unreliable 1942 rim drive changers, many years ago. He is quite knowledgeable on this subject.

I find it interesting that the three post changers were used in the high end Philcos, yet the two post units turned out to be the more reliable changers. I did not know that the changers were made by Webster-Chicago. Many thanks for that info.
