My Westar projectors sat on RCA 9031 soundheads with direct gear drive. I've seen some combinations in my time on Western Electric Universal bases & RCA soundheads, BTH, Ross, Simplex, Kalee projectors.
Ken, Never did like those Westrex flexible vertical drive couplings. I was let down with them a couple of times at the old Carlton Theatre, Haymarket. The RCA gear drive, never in 25 years.
Hope Brixton is going well for you. I did a days relief at the old Pavilion Pullman in the year dot, when is it was a double feature Cowboy & Indian cinema. Projectors were BTH Supa's MK 2.
I have a relative in Brixton running an African gifts shop.
