[GreenKeys] 164C1 Test Set

[Pete Lancashire]

As someone pointed out there were variations. A 1, 2 and 3". Instead of
'studs' there were 4 mounting screws that terminated into the shields ears,
"pulling" everything together. Same tho' was once the screws were removed
the tube could be removed.

I found the BSP, or at least on version that shows the front, unfortunatly
the top chassis view is Fig 9.

Neat little test set ...
