He's still around, keeping a low profile and enjoying his well deserved retirement.

Ron,
 Is Chuck no longer providing schematics etc?  I had not heard about his retirement.
                                           Thanks,
                                                Henry

Ron,
 Thanks for the info. We had e-mailed back in November and I never heard any more. I guess that explains that.
