Linus (The T1 Eating Maching) Update

[DYARNES]

Hi All,
 
Seems like I'm giving folks a good laugh, and I don't blame you.  
Unbelievable, isn't it?  Anyway, the parts inventory fortunately yielded  good news.  
The only part that seems to be missing is the stereo jack,  which I assume will
"show up" later!!!!  I even found all the little LED  spacers!  When I caught
Linus in the act, he was chewing on the foam  padding with the processor on
it, but doesn't look like he did anything to the  processor
itself-------hopefully!!!  If he wasn't so darn cute and innocent  looking I'd be mad.  Maybe I
should add his picture to my QSL card  equipment list!
 
Thanks for all the suggestions!

I guess we can add "Dog-Proof!" to the T1 spec sheet?

Hmmm... Was he wearing an anti-static strap? It's probably okay anyway. It
surely is if it didn't come off of the foam.

The stereo jack can be added whenever it "shows up". You won't even use it
unless you use the T1 with a Yaesu FT817 or you decide to modify another rig
for remote control. The T1 is fully-functional as a stand-alone tuner.

And just think, when the jack is in place on the tuner main board, you can
show off your T1's "innards" and proudly exclaim to your audience "You
wouldn't BELIEVE where parts of this tuner have been..."

On second thought, you can order a replacement guaranteed not to have been
attacked by gastric acids from Elecraft... Just check the parts list and
give 'em a call. That is after very carefully checking the patio. The jack
is very small and very black and very easy to miss.

I assume at some point the gubmint will order a large numner of T1s and feed
them to the dog, in order to have units that can be used in any environment
and escape detection since they will look like normal leavings.

Working backwards, it boggles the imagination to ponder the type of animal they
will feed K2/100s to to achieve the same camoflage effect.

Dave:
When you send a message next week saying the "T1 passed", we'll have no
idea if that means it passed checkout or the dog got to it again...
