I put in a 12 hour day and have little to show for it. I finished drilling the new holes in my control panel. It took a long time and a rat tail file to make nine SAE holes into metric holes. Next up was a good coat of primer, front and back. I sprayed a light coat of "BRM" green followed by a way-to-heavy top coat. I'll have to sand and try again tomorrow. I decided my next adventure should be simple. I intended to mark the power cords on my two transformers for proper phasing. But... when I fired up my "Type S", I had no voltage on A or B to common. I read my "Greenberg's Manual" before taking the cover off the transformer. I found the wiper badly bent and making no contact. A small pair of needle nose pliers made that all better. I failed to take a before photo. I cleaned everything and put it back together. Once again, the dinosaur lives. Now I have a second supply to power my switches. Finally, I marked the plugs for correct phasing. I will be on my ham radio tomorrow until noon. Join me on 7.251 MHz if you can. Sanding and painting the control panel will follow.
73 and good night,
Bill
