Dear Ken,
thank you as lot for you suggestions and considerations.

ETI sequencer?! Never seen before but extremely interested. Could you help
or suggest me about its manual? Obviously, relevant information are welcome.

Thanks. I hope that such an information can help other people involved in
the ETI construction.

Yes, I agree.  The 5600 (Maplin, not mor ETI) now add this feature as well
as for sync between VCOs.

> Winding data for the chokes is supplied in the 4600
>manual, and they are based on fairly common choke bodies (neosid?).
Yes, I realise before. Unfortunately, to be honeoust, I think to be not
able to make them. Do you know if some companies sell these items or at
least the choke bodies?


Thank again.
