Hi zoners, Maybe my imagination is to little, but how does this 'dingle arm' look? Where can I find it? My L100 is from 1969/1970. Does it have one at all? And what's to be done with it? I knbow a lot of questions, but I'm still learnig, you know. Gandert ----- Original Message ----- From: dug5037 To: hammond_zone@...

This is because it's buried under the lower udatulator plate. This tool, which was Hammon part # B2-02T564, consisted of a stratifed pentagrid plate modulator that would maintain the algebraic relationship of the generator coil flux to the magnetic field set up by the nofer trunnions. With this relationship maintained, the dingle arm can be withdrawn through the fennel orifice with out fear of excessive skor motion. Good News--I found the dingle arm under the plate just as you said and I bent it slightly while playing a C AUG chord on the upper manual with all the drawbars out--I could hear the growl increase as I bent it--I stopped at exactly 15 degrees 30 minutes as measured with a laser refractor doo-hickey otoscope. This is the optimum setting for just enough growl and mininum distortion. Be aware that bending to far will raise the emitter levels of the two torsional bias transistors to a dangerous level and could result in a complete meltdown. As with any modification--"your results will vary" Doug T582 with a bent dingle that now sounds like a B3 Ain't this fun? BTW I got a piezo tweeter with dual drivers in one rectangle horn housing that I am going to wire into my Homemade Leslie to bring out the key click and sharpen up the percussion--I will not stop until my ears start to bleed!
