Luxman T-110 Tuner, eventually was modified by Don Scott…Pioneer TX-9100 Tuner in second system…
Through not technically “on the rack”, my house was built in 1933 and my ears and the rest of me in 1950.
On the rack is my 2004 NAD Stereo Tuner C422, which is used most every day tuned to my local NPR classical music station.

Thanks! I really can not remember much other than it had a second rod going to the end of the tone arm. My neighbor gave that to me along with a couple cartridge’s for cutting his grass for a summer I believe.
You’re welcome. A very close friend had the same turntable and if I remember right as the tonearm tracked down the record the headshell (or maybe the cartridge mounting) swiveled so it was supposed to present a constant tracking angle.

Exactly correct!
You are fortunate. NPR is “all talk” in Chicago, their largest market. Liked their jazz, Afro-Pop, and classical programs in the past.

Fortunately in the Chicago area there is WNUR, WFMT and WDCB. Things are shaking up at NPR and WBEZ, as listener financial support seems to be slipping.

My 165 lb speakers are blocking entrance to the back of my rack. Luckily, Timbernation makes a very strong rack. So today, the oldest thing in (on) my rack was a 74 year old man climbing over it to troubleshoot my turntable motor controller.
