Fred, I don't recall it offhand but a picture might help.

Mike, Coletronics made the update adapters and supplied the test data
and roll charts for many of the manufacturers, Heath, EICO, and
Precision included.  They were a second-echelon company which
specialized in this.

They are gone.  The present Coletronics (Joe Cole) in the New York area
is not related.

Only "sort of".  PACO was the kit and economy product division of
Precision Apparatus.  At some point Precision came to be called a
'division of Pacotronics'.  Then the whole shebang was bought by B&K,
and became the "Precision" in "B&K+Precision".
