Building the WAQY, Springfield MA automation in the early seventies. Gary says: This is from when we upgraded the Schafer 901 (mechanical relay control) to 903 (digital CPU). The upgrade was a compable to changing a timing belt with the engine running.


Thanks to our old friend Gary Tompkins for these great photos!
