Anyone remember the VTR Nationals at Asheville? I remember some of it. I 
spent an awful lot of time under and around the dash of my TR6 in the hotel 
parking lot trying to get mine working. I was able to purchase a good used 
one there. I installed it and it still works today. I probably shouldn't 
have said that.
