Hi All, Just joined the forum after purchasing a Wurlitzer 1015 OMT.
My first question is that I have a load of 7" vinyls, both dinked and non-dinked. I have heard it plays both but I can't see how? The spindle is large and only for dinked records correct?

Jukeboxes that play either, I'm not sure about Wurlitzer, but many Rock-Olas do, look as if they only play dinked records, but the combination of an undinked record held by the gripper arm forces the three lugs down that centre a dinked record and it settles over the little centre spindle.

Be aware that many jukeboxes, when they play an undinked 7" record, will switch to 33 1/3 rpm. To the juke a 7" record with a small hole says this is a "Little LP"...

Hi Larry,
That is of course how these were designed to operate but it's usually fairly easy to modify them to not switch to 33rpm.
Norman.
