You guys provided so much back bracket information I would guess you have answers to my next question too!
I am looking for governor weight dimensions (including mounting hardware) for an Edison Concert (banner). Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Regards, Scott

Scott, I don't quite understand your question. "Concerts" were equipped with "Triton" motors, so the governor weights (except for the early U.S. Phono examples) would be the same as found on other "Concerts" and "Triumphs" of the period. Or am I misinterpreting your query?

Hi George,
I think you do understand my question (and ignorance). This is the only Banner Concert I have ever owned and unfortunately there are two different sized weights on this motor and regulation is poor. I want to replace the wrong sized weights. I have other machines with Triton motors so I will look at those.
I guess what I should have asked was "is the Banner Concert motor identical to the other Triton motors".
I still find it odd that somebody would have installed different weights. Obviously they didn't play this machine often because it doesn't regulate well!
Thanks George!

Scott,
Oh - that's good - because your solution is a simple one! I've never checked, but I'd bet that the "Triton" motors use the same governor weights as "Standards" or "Homes." Simply get a set of three and you should be in business. I'd probably just order a set (with governor springs) from Ron Sitko and be done with it. Good luck - - all problems should be so easily solved!
