What do radio stations use? 15 years ago they used Stantons. Oh, yeah. One more question. What's a good cartridge and needle to use for 78-rpm records? (I use a Grado FCR with a 78 needle at 3 grams with a Rek-O-Kut 160 tone arm. I should use more force but 3 grams is as high as the arm will go. It tracks OK but usually doesn't track the run-out groove.)
