Looking at the board from Mesa I have here I think you guys are right
that I should have plenty of IO available and perhaps I should use the
individual home switches after all. I need also to source some nice zero
backlash 22mm to 19mm compression style couplers from a USA Source that
are zero backlash and can handle up to around 10nm of torque. The fellow I
am kinda copying who has already done a similar retrofit on a Cincinnati
Arrow 500 vmc in England has a source but getting them here might be
costly. I'd like to find some reasonably priced high quality units
stateside. Anyone........Anyone.......Beuler.....Beuler....??
I sure appreciate all the ideas and suggestions guys. Peace
Pete
