the players which three selections are
the most popular in that location at
that specific moment. A micropro-
memory
system

keeps a record of the number of
times each selection is played and
also keeps tabs on the three most
popular selections . and constantly
transmits this information to the
digital light indicators .
The new phonograph also fea -
tures a random complimentary play
aher a varying period of inactivity .
The operator has a choice of two
time spans in which the phonograph
will randomly playa complimentary
selection : 10 to 30 minutes, or 20 to
60 minutes after the last selection
was played .
Al so . at the option of the operator ,
Mystic will stimulate players with the
random offer of a bonus . In the
center of the upper display panel of
