No.

Blew the OAMS squib--could not hear it blow. Had
no way of telling that it really worked.

pulse a regulator up and I did and it works just

know, and you got to keep blipping it up.
And I
built it up to about 325 from about 300 just to see
if it would do it and it did. So the system
worked OK.
But I still don 1t know that the squib
was blown--you know you pulse, anyhow.

Well, they found a booster-- they might find the
