I actually thought about a non-ac model 37 - but given it goes into
the audio range and beyond i felt it best to keep it both sides of ground.

Push pots - no can do in an ELF: too large under the panel.  The
iceberg effect would have the sides of the pot sticking out the ends
of the faceplate.

Model 10, Mk 3:  A switch for both retrig and non-retrig ops:  I
wrestled with this one, a lot and elected against it only becase it
would have constituted a rise in the price due to the time it would
take to wire the switch.  We've already got two of themin there we're
hand wiring as it is.  

If I convert the M10 to the new jacks, which means the panel hardware
would integrate by simply soldering the the part into a board, then I
will do this but in the meantime, ALL M10 MK 2's CAN BE MODDED IN THIS
MANNER.  You'll need to punch a hole in the panel and wre a DPDT
switch, but it can be done - I designed the new boards so tat was
possible.

This weekend I'll publish the procedure.
