Hi John, yes, that was the issue. There wasn't enough slot to allow the cartridge to come forward far enough for the stylus to reach either arc.
My Wally Tractor has two arcs, one marked Baerwald, the other Löfgren (It doesn't specify A or B).
Now here's something interesting. It had been quite a few years since I'd even looked at my Wally Tractor. After reading your post, I thought the issue was that the cartridge wouldn't come forward far enough, but thought I'd refresh my memory.
I just put the Tractor on my table, and checked again. It looks like there MAY be enough slot there for the Baerwald. When I tried it back in 2008 with my Denon 103R, and some other cartridge, it didn't work. With the currently mounted Dynavector DV-20XL...Maybe?
That doesn't make sense to me. Nothing's changed. Same table, same arm. I'm not ready to say "mea culpa" just yet. I'd have to try realigning the cartridge, and that's not something I look forward to, despite my having read Zen And The Art Of Cartridge Mounting many, many times.
