Dag and Allison, (01)
Just sending out an email note to let you know that I stopped by the CHM
today and gave William Harnack the 3 keyset cables that I mentioned
would be donated to the museum. (02)
William, I am also including below a copy of the information that I
described to you verbally this afternoon. A copy of this information
also appears in the PDF report that we previously gave to the museum. (03)

================================= (05)
Brian Cardanha has graciously agreed to build and donate three adapter cables
to the CHM. The “SN-XX” is
the serial number of the cables (so we can keep track of how many, and which
type were made). (06)
* SN-08, Type D cable (for Alto-style keyset)
* SN-09, Type D cable (for Alto-style keyset)
* SN-10, Type A cable (for NLS/Augment-style keyset) (07)
================================= (08)
