British content
Guys,
To date all the components for the Lynx have been of Canadian or American manufacture. That is about to change. I had taken one of the last electrical components - wire fuse and holder, C19SR 14525 to the OMVA meet in Acton, to try and find one. No luck, but folks suggested that I goggle SLYDOK and see what was out there. Thanks Colin and Charlie. Up popped The Fuse Company in England. Will have to wait until I can talk to a real person tomorrow, but it looks as if they still carry them. The fuse looks like a more modern one, but this could be one of the last pieces of the electrical puzzle. Was great to attend the swap meet and reconnect with folks and have some faces and personalities to place with email connections. Belonging to MLU and OMVA have allowed me to meet a lot of great people. Peter 2016-03-13 01.30.49.jpg 2016-03-12 16.58.08.jpg

Odd that this one seems to show the clips in the slidey- bit - makes more sense...

Fuse holder
Andrew,
Thanks for your offer. I ordered a new SLYDLOK fuse holder and fuses from The Fuse Company of England yesterday. They no longer carry the old wire fuses or holder. Apparently the new ones are indistinguishable from the old ones and more reliable. I am working on completing the electrical circuit and have no plans to work on an actual wireless installation in the near future. However if you can share some pictures of your filter, fuse holder and wiring, I would appreciate it. My original reference picture before disassembly is less than perfect. I will have to also have fabricated a cover for the fuse holder since mine was missing. Peter 2016-03-15 09.03.16.jpg 2016-03-15 09.04.56.jpg 2016-03-15 09.05.27.jpg

Another piece of the puzzle
Guys,
When we retired to the County we were aware of its great wines and beautiful beaches. However I did not realize how many talented craftsmen live here as well. Dave Duguay of Picton took my sketches and measurements (Thanks Rob) and fabricated a new battery box. Some paint and cosmetic work and one missing component will installed on the Lynx. Crew compartment is rapidly shrinking. Peter

Crew change
Folks,
Having an enjoyable visit with my American cousin. First lady to climb into the Lynx and try out the ergonomics, including the escape hatch. Much more nimble than I am. Peter 2016-04-01 13.55.00.jpg
