[Healeys] Dip Switch

[Michael Salter]

Yes Curt is correct regarding how the switch was installed in the 100.
For confirmation these 2 pics show how it was originally installed in B.#174

The ragged edges of the asbestos are original and seem to indicate that it
was broken away manually to make room for the dip switch.
The overlength screws are what were originally used.
