Default Re: Putting RMB on a pedestal

There is enough room on mine for a 6mm round 3 core mains lead to pass underneath. There is 1/4 inch clearance between the radio base and ridge on the turn table. It does 'stall' the movement very slightly, but only because the cable does not lie flat. I wonder if your turn table is damaged?

Lighting shops carry huge ranges of 0.5mm flex in various colours. Ask about the cable diameter though, there is no common standard.

Or you could re-purpose a flat 2 core computer cable?
Or maybe remove the turn table and place a thin gasket between it and the radio base to increase the 'lift'?

Obviously the cable you have now is just too thick especially as the bend round the exit hole actually increases the thickness.
