My throat and mouth went dry, and I blurred out in a rasp, "By chance do you have the ADAPTER?" "Of course" was the response, and I, CALMLY, STILL RASPY, BUT FIRMLY said, "I will take them both..." and then asked the price -- which was very reasonable." - -------------------- End Original Message -------------------- Bill, Your nerves are made of tougher steel than mine! I may resort to custom fabrication because the combination of the 280 and the Televit seems ideal. Doug Herr Sacramento http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/telyt
