Can you name this BSR deck? - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

I've looked through the BSR deck sticky but didn't see the deck I was after. I've never seen a BSR with this arm weight setting mechanism. No idea how to set the weight, turn the whole thing or the the nurled screw below it? the whole thing is gummed up so don't want to force anything until I've stripped it

Can anyone ID it?

it's in a 1971 radiogram and I'm quite pleased to have come upon a BSR from 'my' era that I've never seen before... sad I know!

cheers
Joe

Which seems to identify it as an MA70 don't think I have ever seen one.

Thanks, Mike, I'm using a tablet today, hence the odd glitch.
