Re: G08_105 spec flyer, G17 spec flyer posted

Very interesting stuff! (And it answers the Amplifone / G08 question. The G08 is
faster, considering it's higher voltages and lower yoke inductance, this is to
be expected. Though, if I recall, it's not that much faster. My gut feeling is
that as you get faster and faster it takes more and more power for less and less
gain. Kind of like approaching the speed of light. But a lot slower... ;-)

Until we designed the ZVG I didn't even know about spec #9, (it took two
firmware re-writes to get it right).

I'd be *real* interested in a scan of the G17 as well...(it could have been used
in medical applications, but I'd be interested none the less.)
