Charlie,
It was a new one, as was its replacement. The MCs were Lockheed, as
best I could determine from the castings, and it's my understanding that
they are the only makers of the MCs now. I bought it from LBC, and Jeff
was very gracious about making the exchange even though I was tardy about
getting to it.
