More recently, it may be in one of my switcher junk piles which may have made it more recognizable. If it's still there, it's resting with a TS 40 panel as well. I don't know the history of Riker or Richmond Hill. Likewise, I don't know the demise of Vital, CDL, or others.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 18px;">OK.
