Sorry to those who got my first message scrambled. No idea why this happened as no attachments or pictures were included. Like Chad, I will try and record my whistle this week. I did get whistle #2 to sing this weekend but only on the 1st harmonic. I tried several of the various sizes

Thank you Eric. Turns out there is not nearly as much room in there as I thought. Have to come up with a plan B. Maybe a very thin battery and a micro switch where the base screw goes. ttfn Brian Scott On Mon, 26 Aug 2002 17:40:22 -0700 Eric Maschwitz [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The headlamp
