It is probable that July 11/12th will see an absence of the Challenger 
due a small technical hitch involving car door lock actuators and high 
currents.... See historic discussions for more info on that.  I will 
probably be running T027 (which now does turns on the spot :-) ).

However, if I can make it to Surrey, which I can't see being a problem, 
and assuming it goes ahead, I shall be there, complete with T027 and at 
least a firing Challenger, hopefully a moving one.

I need to produce a little circuitry to make the trigger system in the 
challenger slightly more reliable and easier on the operator (I.E. push 
one button, and it only runs the actuator for a few milliseconds, and 
we'll see how that works.  It'll go in-line between the C6C and the 
BattleSwitch.  Should solve the problem I had.  At least that's the 
plan.  It all depends on whether I can write the code for the chip 
before the 11th July or not as to whether the Challenger can make it. 
If not, there will be a spare C6C control system available.
