Does anyone know if the sensor arm Photo resistor is still available, and if so where can they be obtained, a leg has broken off mine and I need to replace it, failing this does anyone know the specification of the photo resistor (OPH1) so I can try and find a suitable find a replacement
I have replaced a broken sensor with an OSRAM component....
A Beogram 4000 - (beoworld.org)
Osram Opto, SFH 206 K IR
I think it was this one..........
Alain ("boneofiel") on the Beolover Blog used an OSRAM LPT 80A with success as well.

Great, thanks, the manual shows it as an LDR as opposed to a photo diode but these are relatively cheap so certainly worth giving a go
Alain's blog post gives a detailed look at the original circuit and his replacement. It's good information whether you use his solution or not.
