Thank you for sending the new footswitch. Since our memo, the trouble has righted itself, so we shall continue to run with the existing footswitch unless it goes wrong again, and keep the new one as a spare. We find in general with electrical troubles that their intermittent occurrence and recovery makes it difficult for us to give you as much data as we should wish, but at the same time the faults must be reported. ------------- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/IMW.{Ivan M.
