Yes, it's Wayne Alarm in Lynn, Mass. They're really nice people.
Here's the URL:
thanks bob i have some stuff to send him
They may be interested to buy a copy of an old book (1926) on wiring alarm systems. This book also has wiring instructions for the old "Knob and Tube" wiring. Very interesting to read this stuff. The alarm wiring is near the back of the book and in the "Interior Wiring" section.
The book is one volume of a set and the specific book is called: "International Library of Technology" - "Distribution of Electrical Energy". Published by International Textbook Co.
Many copies of this old book can be found for sale at the following book search site (Searches many different stores world wide)...
The copy I have is dated 1926. I don't know if copies published at different times also have the alarm wiring section or not.
that's must be the one bASS uses as a reference for tech support! real OLD.
I think he's donated everything to Honeywell and they're constructing a museum. Received one of those bullshit Honeywell notes recently.
I hear that too.. Honeydont got all his stuff.
Bill,
I'm sure they'd love to have it but they don't usually buy things. The collection is mostly stuff they took out of old systems plus a number of donated items. It's not the kind of museum where the general public shows up much, although they would certainly be welcome to do so.
I've heard that they're going to be commissioning a special section of the museum. "The Hall of Flame". It'll feature a life size wax figure of Bass in his "Amazon fishing outfit" (hip-waders) standing in a pile of bullshit, holding up a Napco LCD keypad which reads: "Attention Burglar. Go Ahead, Make My Day." On closer inspection you'll notice that it's printed on green electrical tape. A sign around his neck will read: "See? Any primate can make it work. You only need a modicum of tape skills and a couple of hours instruction on the phone."
& DIY ONLY sign. :-))
