[78-L] 1952 lacquer record question

[Malcolm]

Hi Taylor, Hi Dave.
Nice to hear from you both. That means there are at least 3 of us still 
on 78L!
I'm going to try the flip side with an LP stylus. At the weights we're 
using nowadays
it shouldn't be a problem.
Label sez that tracking should be no more than 2 ounces. That made sense 
in 1952,
but not for an LP.
I think I will be able to stay under that.
