Nemesis is pretty much scraped. What remains may be up for grabs in an
upcoming fleamarket in September. I plan on giving Bill Emory right of
first refusal as he seemed interested the the primary/secondary system
last
year.
The key factor which I regarded as important when repairing Nemesis was
the
nasty looking and overdown insulating "warts" of epoxy which made the
system
look so unsightly. If one trys for cometics, all bets are off. Still,
good
luck with any planned repairs.
