 Hi Paul;
 If you like, I could watch eBay for you, and when I see a likely
 one, I could post the URL to the list to make sure you see it.
 That way, for sure you can get one for a good price.

I am using the 400T. I was surprised to find that it didn't
pivot all the way around.

As with the 280T, the flash head rotates horizontally up to
90degrees in one direction (with click stops) and up to
180degrees in the other.  270degrees in total.  You just need to
turn it the other way.  I only discovered this myself after
reading the manual...

Thanks Mike, that's good news. Although using it in manual mode with the
reflector is probably a good discipline, since it forced me to use the
flash meter. I sometimes use the meter in auto mode as well, just to
make sure I'm in range of the indicated stop.

Paul,

The flash head on my similar 280t model flash unit pivots clockwise to allow the 
sensor to point forward when the head faces the rear. I'm surprised the 400t doesn't 
do this.  Or maybe I'm assuming incorrectly that you were using that model.

 I had to set the flash on manual and use a flash meter,
 since the flash sensor was facing the umbrella.

I will eventually get a 67II, just for
 the TTL flash synch. Then i'll use my 6x7 as a backup. But I
have to
 wait until I can snipe one on ebay for five hundred bucks or
so. Maybe
 next year.
