Hi Poul, I am glad you had a good experience with Stewarts, I have dealt with them on and off over almost 40 years. In those days they were in Reading close to the Universtiy, and run by David's father and mother. They were always friendly and helpful, and always willing in those days to haggle with amateurs. I think they may be a little more "professional" now. They were often a useful source of lab grade instrument manual copies. Alan G3NYK
