LA36, 120 and 180 were mechanically similar but that about it.
the logic and a few other detils were different.
My books are still in storage,( basement wall are up!
), but I
seem to
recall the LA36 had adjustments on the servo. Could the LA180? -Dave

I'll be scrapping some more LA100s (RO) shortly; any useful parts in there
for anyone? I believe that at least some parts are compatible with the LA210
and others, including the LA34 & 38; can someone confirm that? Also an LJ500 (B2), although it's probably clogged
and I don't expect much
interest...
TIA,
