Well, here's a chance to test his knowledge of VAQ trivia. In the early days, Grumman built an automated test station called the Digital Test Station. When I first got into AIMD working on the DTS, we could run 35 different ARA's. Later, they made another modification that allowed control boxes to be run as well. It was a nifty machine that stood about 6 feet tall, 3 feet deep and about 10 feet wide.
To keep it at top performance, we had a Grumman Tech Rep on site to keep the DTS operating. We had to laugh, though, at some Calibration tech at Cubi who wanted to zero out over 100 interacting pots to calibrate the machine. We politely, but firmly told him that if he tried, we would feed him to the machine before he ever put a screwdriver on the first pot. He got the hint, LOL!!!
You're getting beyond me, here. I've pinged hubby, aka Comrade Bork.
