Re: [IRCA] Remote Termination on DKAZ and EWE

I'm now using Colin's Vactrol with a EWE and it works fine. Just finished digging a trench across the grass to hide the bell wire (don't know if same term is used 'over there') to connect the control unit and resistor. Paul Troon, Scotland On 20/03/2016 17:40, Nick Hall-Patch wrote: Hi

Re: [IRCA] Remote Termination on DKAZ and EWE
