[R-1051] Update - Pretty Much Working

[Al Parker]

Hi Folks,
	In case anyone would like a cc of the manual Dave refers to, it's at:
<http://www.boatanchors.org/R-1051.htm>

This link was created in 2007 to host a little-known manual for the 
R-1051, as Dave pointed out to me a few weeks ago, after he had found it 
by a difficult search.  He suggested I get a link to it on my home page, 
which I have not done yet, but will, when I get a round tuit.  As can be 
seen at The Hammarlund Historian site, I'd rather work on boatanchors 
than on websites.  Some months very little of either gets done.
73,

Al, W8UT
