Folks - you can stop mailing me. WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!!
I'm up to 47 messages in my mailbox, and stuff is flowing in by the
minute. About half of them are wrong, and are giving the changover
information for the 3/50, which is toward the front of the board. I
include Ron Dewey's post, where he happily gave the entire page from the
hardware installation manual for the 3/60.
Again, thanks for the input - I'll continue tallying responses - mebbe
I can get an award for most mail coming in on a single subject. :) :)
