[GreenKeys] Model 15 remedial question

[Jason W6IEE]

John, thanks!

This was the problem area. Stop Lever 6909 was gunked up tight. Oiled it
and cycled it, back together, and the machine is running open again all
before I’ve had any coffee this morning!

Later today I’ll try to get my loop supply issues sorted out, and I know I
have issues with the carriage returning to home, I’ll write that situation
up later today as well.

Thanks again!
