I stand corrected.
	I made the mistake of taking the first 516 p.s skem I came across in my 
digifiles.  C-1 there is as I stated.  I should have looked further to 
find the 516-F2 which was in Mark's post, but didn't have it in the 
digi-files.  (it only took me 15 min. to find a paper cc)
sri to mislead,  but glad there are always better minds out there.
