Hi,

Great! Good to see another rig stay on the air. The only comment I have 
to add is about that red wire and small hole through the steel. I would 
replace the worn wire and while it the hole is empty I would at least 
enlarge it and install a fat rubber grommet! A whole shrink-wrapped 
assortment of those is almost *free* and they are very effective. A car 
I once bought and subsequently found had been repaired after a major 
accident had the main power to the headlights through a hole in the 
steel. A rubber grommet had been left out during the repair! Murphy 
struck when the headlights winked out on a back road in the middle of 
the night! A careful inspection found three more missing grommets.  
Great plan to do something about that wire.

73,
