It was aneat machine, but the fidelity of both the sound gate design and the optics leaves a lot to be desired! Nonetheless, I have parts, books, and data on them so email me with your mailing address and I will copy and send you what I can! (I even have NEW drive belts!) As for the #5 amp? Are you sure it is a #5, or is it a W-5? What types of tubes are in it and can you email pix? I have data on most all WE apperatus, but that one does not sound familiar! I am afraid I do not have any info on the projector! But if someone else provides it, I sure would like to get copies! ------------------ John Eickhof President, Chief Slave Northwest Theatre Equipment Co., Inc.
