Hi Greg,

No problem, I know I'm trying to tap 10 year old measurement info. I was 
just thinking if there was before and after data for on the envelope for 
the primary change. Don't worry about it, it's no big deal. Mostly arm 
chair brain activity and nothing more.

As you mentioned in your reply to Bert, if gap LR impedance's are near 
0.377 ohms, that would certainly throw the gap resistance much closer to 
the ballpark I was thinking.

Take care,
Bart
