Jon,
It's been a long day and my brain is having a hard time with this
statement. Can you help me understand what you are saying here? The way
I see it, yes, the damper COULD lift as high if you made other
adjustments as well, i.e.,increase key dip. If you just left the
relationships as is I do believe you would run out of keystroke before
you could accomplish the same work as before, which is to lift the
dampers to the same height. Can't be done as I see it. Am I missing
something here?
