It was broken when I got there, so I missed the adrenalin part. I spliced on a new length of wire, made a loop. and it pulled up with the wrap just exactly where I wanted it. Surprised the heck out of me. No witnesses, naturally, so I couldn't even try to pretend to anyone that it wasn't wildly dumb luck. Another day, another trip to the Twilight Zone. Ron N
