[PSUBS-MAILIST] Video

[James Frankland via Personal_Submersibles]

Hi Hank,
Yes, was a bit heavy.  I will sort that out for next time.  But I prefer
that to buffooning about trying to get under.  Another problem with those
1/2 inch vent lines.

Can you let me know the reversing relays that you use?  Thanks
