............sorry, it looks like I need to clear out my pm's.

..........I got mine from ORC in germany. I usually talk a lady by the name of Daniel. Telefon (07 11) 34 29 42-0 - Telefax (07 11) 34 29 42-21

.........It looks like you need it soon, but I don't know who makes one in the USA. A good place to ask is fourbyfourclub.com. Telephone 1-866-439-4303

...........I have the same one as the one you have a link to from the fourbyfourclub. I got mine from ORC though. I paid through the nose because at the time I had no knowledge of where else to get it.

The one on ebay is being offered at a great price. It is different from the ORC/fourbyfourclub one. but If the one on ebay works well, I don't think it matters. does it?
