MOTM

a) MOTM-650s are at SMT assembly house getting stuffed

b) MOTM-730: all parts/boards now in-house, will send to SMT assembly after 
the '650s are done
(plus they are moving to a larger location, so I expect this will be 1st 
week of Sept). Front panels
on order. Still looking good for Oct 15th ship date. They are in the cart, 
get yours on order today!
Operators standing by.

c) MOTM-1800 and MOTM-1485 Fracs will ship to AH on Sept 5th.

d) Will ship over 60 MOTM modules (kits + assembled) by Sept 8th. This is 
1/3 of existing backlog but it's a dent.
My 'day job' has had much travel this summer, nothing I can do about that. 
But with the
4-day holiday weekend coming up I have blocked that time for lots of MOTM 
activity, have hired
part-time help (for putting together '650s).

e) after I get the 60 modules shipped I will devote some time to CG/CGX 
production hardware. I can't
let the Livewire AFG get all the attention/fun :)

f) several folks have asked about additional Frac modules (like a '440). If 
you want to see such modules,
lobby Shawn at Analog Haven. He decides, not me.

g) there are several modules here for repair, I will attend to them this 
week as well. Please note that
dropping these face-down from 4ft onto a concrete floor will likely cause 
problems. Also, plugging in the
power cord backwards is a sure bet to blow stuff up.
