When did you start the process, in the Spring? If so, that may well
be true...my info indicates they are no longer in the Blanik repair or
parts business.

I know of a case where a control bridge was purchased from the Mfg
July last year, only to find out it was not new or remanufactured but
had been "overhauled" by an "approved" repair station. It did not
pass dye check, and the buying party got screwed.

I wonder why I am wasting time on this thread - Viteck is the factory
rep, and he has news on the BA page. Too bad he did not post to this
group and save us some time!
