I just visited the Match Technical site, and they list no Thumbs Up with a 
hot shoe, so the question remains. If using a Thumbs Up, how to trigger a 
flash without a PC socket? I like my Thumbs Up, but would probably get one 
with a hot shoe if available. Although, they don't come cheap.

you don't need a PC socket with PW's or radio triggers
