    Parts Magnavox W747-01 Made in England

    I am looking for a donor turntable chassis to scavenge parts for the W747-01. The plastic gear is missing some teeth. Or, a source for the part. I could also use a service manual.

    Mystery Pioneer turntable - can you ID this?

    A good friend of mine found this at a yard sale and he did the right thing and took it home with him. Any idea on an ID for this odd duck? I haven't seen a Pioneer that plays 78s in addition to 33s and 45s, and there is no model number present. Was this possibly a pull from a console?
