Since we were chatting about RA80s has anyone of you
had an RA8x on
top of a short rack?
Never done that. I've never wanted to lift them that high. :-)
I have put on up onto my HSC90 but I found that
they don't actually slide into the rack but the top panel of the rack
is removed and then you can open the hood of the RA8x without
pulling out the "drawer". This is a perfect arrangement for an RA60.
The 42" cab for the RA60 was a little different than the standard, IIRC.
It had extended-length sides, and was set up to have the top of the
upper-most RA60 accessible without sliding it out. The extra length
is to accomodate the long drive and still provide room for SDI cables
at the rear (and perhaps a cable support arm, I forget if the RA60s
used them)
However, I think there are some minor special parts
that fill the
gap between the side panels of the rack and the actual drive. Does
anyone of you have those spare lying around somewhere or know where
one might get those?
I have no spares and would have no idea where to get such things except
a scrapper who hadn't yet cut his racks into handfuls of metal chips.
