What!!! no news letter, yes the SCSA newsletter has been stopped for while. One of the committee thinks we will get better attendance at the meeting and slope, as members will have to turn up to find out what is happening.

 

 

 

 


Dear Roger sorry for the long delay.

The severe chest pain, shortness of breath and pain spreading to your left arm could be a heat attack and I suggest you call an ambulance immediately and get help from next door.
Send me your phone number and I will phone you, if you made it 
Do you have another email address?

long term I suggest

Phil

 

 

 

 

Black wire
I have a back up transmitter a Futaba 6EXA which I do not use much, but the other day I tried to use it, but the charge was too low, so I plugged it into a charger, when I tried it tonight there was no sign of life. I decided to remove the battery but could not remove the plug and had to get some long nose pliers, it still took a lot of removing, when I finally got it out there was some green corrosion on the plug, I cut it off and there was the dreaded black wire rot on the negative wire, just a warning to anyone who thinks it only affects receiver packs.
