Hi,

I just obtained an old JVC QL-A2 table with a brand new cartridge. It works great with a few exceptions:

1) Thusfar I have spun 5 or 6 lp's. About 1/2 of them, when the side is about 7/10th's done, it starts skipping. Any ideas? I'm not sure how the anti-skating knob affects this as well as how much the counterweight setting affects this. I have no tools to measure any of those settings. The cartridge is set in the middle of the slots in the headshell.

2) One of the lp's I played had this horrible "scchhscshhch" sound on the vocals almost immediately when I drop the needle, any ideas? Perhaps a bad pressing?

Thanks for any inputs.

Dave

ps - I have no manual for the table either.
