Orchestrope No. 28-F
The Orchestrope is the first product of then called "Capehart Automatic Phonograph Co.", which company lasted only one year and had then to be financed as Capehart Corporation (moved to Fort Wayne, IN). The model was made with a coin slot except at least "Aristocrat". Difference between 28-G and 28-F is for instance coin box on top for the 28-F model. 250 type amp is possible instead of amp. 245 - for two speakers, for instance the model 600 outdoor twin speakers. The UX245 could only be used after late Spring 1929!The coin operated machine is capable of holding 28 records. There is no selection. It is a continuous play of the slack in place, all 56 sides. In those pioneering days, Capehart favored a changer that drags records across the mechanism, to get them to the turntable, and away from it. It has a springwound phonograph but it is wound by an electric motor. The same electric motor drives the changer mechanism. The springwound mechanism was made for the poor electricity supply at that time - to keep the speed straight. The amplifier is a Webster 6013 with a slightly different transformer (4 taps).
There are several models of Orchestrope known like: Club, Commercial (wide), Commercial (high), Commercial 28 as 28-F, (perhaps 28-G) and 28-GB, Auditorium with a separate Orchestrope Speaker, Aristocrat without coin slot, Home and the "Park" with a separate speaker cabinet, Speaker 600.
In March 1930 came a less expensive Amperion line with a simple turning changer, followed by models with the drop-type only "10-12" mechanism in 1931. The main success was later the changer 16-E etc. - see more details and summaries here.
