[TowerTalk] Dayton electromechanical timers for US Tower controlbox RMC1000

["W0YG (Charlie Summers)" <w0yg@myawai.com>]

W.W. Grainger carries this timer.  Two are required for each MDPL type 
tower.  My problem with the tower not raising was one of the TDR units. 
These timers have a removable cover that allows one to get to the contacts 
to burnish them if necessary.

Burnishing the contacts was a temporary cure for my tower not raising. 
Whacking the side of the case, NJ9K's cure, will also snap that timer into 
operation.  I don't recommend this for a long term cure unless you are 
standing right by the box at the base of the tower to correct anything that 
might go wrong.

It is a pity US Tower doesn't supply a manual with parts list and schematic 
for their tower control systems.  However customer service has never been 
one of their strong suits!

73,

Charlie, W0YG..>>
