Anti-skate

Theoretically, there should not be a change in friction between inner and outer grooves based on 'linear' speed at the stylus. With dry friction, only the interface between the two surfaces and the amount of vertical weight affect friction.

Since VTF is the same for inner and outer grooves, and its the same stylus on the same vynil, there should be no change in friction merely due to different 'speeds' at varying diamters on a record.

Albert has decided to move on from the Walker for yet to be clarified reasons. Perhaps he is enamored enough with the results he is getting from his modified Technics SP10 mk II and SME 312S that he feels compelled to downsize. Personally, I preferred the Walker by a long shot when I visited him in March.

OK,forget about scoping out Albert's place!...Maybe Mike L?

Methinks he's still got a Rockport...

On the other side of the "pond" there's Thomas Heizig,and the Kuzma Airline.

See,I've got everyone covered(I really want that Barolo) -:)

Hey, you can always come visit me out here in the center of the universe in S.E. Iowa to hear my Maplenoll.

Juliejoema,

try driving your car around a corner at faster and faster speeds and tell me what happens to the friction holding your tires in contact with the road. ;-)
