[GreenKeys] 28KSR joy and help with stuntbox

Thu Dec 8 11:43:54 EST 2005

GA, All,
I'm not too sure who wrote the original post concerning the stuntbox, so 
I am replying to all (sri for multiple posts, those
recipients who got them) but I do have some stuntboxes around, and (if I 
can find them) some unbroken and un "programmed"
levers for same buried in the boxes of Greenkey matl's in the basement  
( Russ, pse confirm that my basement contains the
content of 2 houses, and stuff is piled up almost to the ceiling 
--hi)........

Anyhow, If  you need another stuntbox, or some levers, I will make a 
wholehearted attempt to shovel stuff out, I have to
do some serious organizing and cataloging, because I still have to look 
for parts for Russ, who was kind enough to drop
off!!!!!! some parts for my ongoing 28ASR restoration ( underdome reperf 
parts).... once I get started, I should have
a bunch of stuff around,  for 14/15 and 28.. I even have several cartons 
of "Mystery stuff" which I got on the esite several
years ago and haven't even opened up yet, so who knows what lurks in 
those cardboard treasure chests.......

BTW, does anyone happen to have a manual,  (preferably a scan) of the 
Stelma disto analyzer.... I happen to be the
guardian of a full up unit that followed me home one day two years ago, 
and has both provisions for 19" rack mount
as well as a portable case, complete with power supply installed ( which 
was, presumably, where it first resided).....

Now, I have a decent idea of  how to work on this wonderful item, but my 
memory is going on 37++ yrs old, and my wetware has presumably
been somewhat corrupted due to several inadvertant heavy "G" loadings 
and one spectacular impact, in which
a steering wheel of an automobile was broken by my forehead [ 
Greenkeyers must have exceptionally
hard heads]  ( no I remember nothing for 4 days each way) but, I am assured,
it was most spectacular, and if the stories told to me by a friend who 
is a Police Ofcr, and who was on the scene, as well
as a Paramedic ( also a friend) is to be believed) I was babbling 
happily about an aircraft crash many yrs ago--hi--
funny now, but NOT so to the XYL and YL daughter at the time........
Anyhow,  obviously my wetware memory is NOT to be trusted.... so a 
manual ( scan preferred) would make FW
one very happy Greenkeyer........
