It's about 8x8x4 with a 1/2" pressure tap in the rear. It's got a wind up coil spring like Grampy's old wall clock. It uses the old Potter T handled round wrenches with the 2 tabs to open and wind it. There are 2 nuts you can take off to get to wind it without taking off the cover (which I learned AFTER taking off the cover). It's got notched wheels like the old coded alarm transmitters that control a telegraph style contacts that tap according to the notches on the wheels. Really interesting thing, looked like a Gamewell but it was a Potter. I emailed them about it. I tested a building last week with three of them, one on each system. Two seemed to work, they signal alarm and then reset. One wouldn't reset. I suggested they let me install vane switches so I can take these home and play with them. :) Anybody ever seen one?

Don't remember it, Tom. Is this a pressure operated transmitter, with a Plumb movement and no retard? If so, I think I can dig up a Plumb movement for you.
