Author Topic: Dts Reader Bracket for Cinemeccanica V8 Don Furr Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 509 From: Sun City, Ca USA Registered: Nov 2002 posted 11-19-2005 07:38 AM                     I've searched the picture warehouse and haven't found it yet...sooooo, does anyone know if there is a bracket using a DTS reader with an original reel arm on a V8? Any information would be helpful and a close up picture would be even better. I did find in a Film-Tech search that the standard DTS bracket used on a Simplex or Century should work it would seem that an adapter plate would be necessary for the bolt pattern. Thanks...

Perhaps a piece of 1/4" alumnium plate that would sandwich between the upper arm and the head and extend a bit out in front of the head. This would allow you to mount the reader at the end of the plate on the standard DTS bracket.
