By the way, is Finland a good place to buy B&O? I was thinking about getting some (read: a trunkful) valve sets to keep me occupied during the winter.

I'm afraid not. There are sometimes bargains when neither the seller nor the (other) buyers know anything about the kit in case... put in particular with valve sets, I don't think that there are that many left after you put together mine and Ville's They must be a lot easier to find in Denmark. We had a pretty strong domestic radio industry (and licenced manufacturing from Telefunken etc) back then and they mostly still dominate from that era.

Just thought you should know - she was very happy!

Have B&O, will travel.

Erm... how long are you staying?

Not long enough to fix that (nebraskan?) bison.

Would these be the same pins as the seven pins in BC4500 cord? I've removed two from my BC4500 and could donate the extras.

Yes Rich, its the same ones, but I would tape them to the cord, you will never know when you need them, without them remote control wil not work with the BC

Never say never, right, but I think it's safe to say I will never need to remotely control my BC4500!

By the way, this is another 4004 with the two extra pins in the plug missing. Quite a shame, since it's used alongside a 2400. When can we expect a reproduction? Anyone?

I have a pair of pins here, will look into posibility of making copies next time I'm in my workshop with a little time on hand.

Martin do you have the thread size and type ??

Fantastic, maybe we need a travel forum, where members post their needs and where, and travelers their answers and or travel plans.

Example: Need repair of BM 6500 in Mexico city, have guest room and well assorted bar, Answer: Coming to Mexico in November, please stock up your bar with Corona, PM me with failure desription.

The forum should be named Nebraska syndrom.

Can you send me the picture - for some reason I can't get any of these imageshack pictures.

It's just a picture of the finished Beogram playing a LP, I didn't take any pictures of the interior. But I guess my description of the problem is graphic enough?

Yeah, I have a 5-pin 4004 as well. No 2400 either, though...

Did they give you a good place to shack down?

Seized lubrication indeed. Menahem, you can add another red circle to your manual. The pivot for the lower axle was the main culprit in this case.
