Fr24


I just bought a FR24.mkii. missing an anti skate 

according to many forum was designed initially mk 1 without anti skate and Mr Ikeda added anti skate in mk2 since there were many request.

so how should I add this anti skate a string and weight will do? 

is there such a thing as no anti skate?

If you don’t use some heavy low compliance cartridge with high tracking force then anti-skating force is very small, especially with advanced stylus profile (normally half of the tracking force). Some nice cartridges track well with only 1.2 g tracking force, anti-staking force in this situation can be as low as 0.6 (if stylus profile is not conical or elliptical).

I have PRO version of FR-64fx now, on this broadcast model anti-skating mechanism removed completely.

I think you can live without anti-skating
