"Hello Guys,
The large image function for this info is now working. I got greedy and
had too many pixels! The images should display correctly on all browsers.
Again, info at: http://photos.doxaudiolab.net/thumbnails.php?album=18
Sorry about that!"
I could not view the images on the screen. Either they were too small to
read, or magnified so large that only a few words displayed at a time. I
was able to save the pages to a folder in "My Documents" and then print the
saved pages OK, although the printed copy is very light. I could probably
xerox my printed copies with a darker setting and bring out the text a
little better.
Now, the image displays OK on the screen. I notice that I get substantially
better quality by viewing the pages directly off the website than from the
saved pages. The printed copy is exactly the same now as before.
I already had that simplified control circuit schematic in my Gates book. I
used it to convert the relays to DC, by first redrawing the relay coil
circuitry with a pencil, and then making modifications to my redrawn copy
and documenting every change with notations on the paper, down to which
terminal strip and terminal number. Once I had it figured out, I went
through the modified schematic and made the changes in the transmitter. It
worked perfectly the first time.
