From the Vault.....


Hello Again,

Well, things in the shop are starting to calm down, but the office is starting to heat up. We are in preparation for the fall tuning season-which starts in five days, yikes!

Since I don't yet have any pictures of tuning, I decided to pull something from the archives.....

To the left is a shot of the relay and junctionboard of one of our instruments in NE SD. In the forground is the junction panel (backside) Each one of the little pins is then connected to a pipe valve in the windchest. In the darker area at the back is the actual relay. In this case, it is a microprocessor driven system (ie a computer) that "decodes" signals from a similar unit in the organ console about 30 feet away on the other side of the wall......

I hope to have some more pictures of tuning and also of our outstanding VCU/CAT system in a week or two.
