yeah Jack, i think i read about that being done on here.
wonder how they configure the dip switches? seems it makes it easy to adapt in a flash to the many configurations rather than getting out a soldering iron and playing rubik's cube.
the more expensive part is the halfmoon bakelite case and its parts.
i would need to consider it being in that type case.
actually that's not a bad price at all on the OrganiC out the door.
local US sources, just the empty 1/2 moon case is $70.
