[GreenKeys] The BEST TU?

[Dino Papas]

I was always impressed that I was able to build my ST-6 in 1979 with the single colored hookup wire provided to construct the wiring harness....I figured if they sent it to me that way then by golly I could build it that way.  Thank goodness I only had one error in wiring!  Has worked FB ever since!
