Greenkeyers,

I have had a success scanning the tiny label inside the cover of this 
thing: again it has four rows of four jacks: four normalled circuits each 
with two looping jacks and one set jack, and four separate "MISC" jacks for 
whatever else. I'd be glad to send to anyone the image of the label which 
tells about the circuits, the patch cord, and the terminal assignments.

  I may not get to hook it up for a little while, but it looks like this 
little jack panel will be very useful for patching a modest number of loop 
things to other things, and provide for plenty of flexibility.

Now to find some more of those nice WE cloth covered patch cables with Tip 
and Ring plugs like PL-055's.  (I have just a few so far.)

Does anyone have suggestions about cleaning/restoring those patch cables?
- washing machine?
- bucket with dainty fabric cleaner or Woolite?
