Ken:

Here is the response I received from Joe.  I did not know
Joe had the GLB running before he came to Oklahoma or after
since the first time I saw it was when he demonstrated
it for me at his house.  I know that I duplicated a set
of boards for this, but it must have been a backup set for
him as he apparently already had it constructed.

This still may not be the earliest instance of a synthesized
remote base since I believe that Joe was stationed in Las
Vegas at Nellis (?).  And, of course, who knows what Ed
Ingber was up to at that time.
