Although I did get it all together and did draw and publish the schematics, I 
got almost all of the information on that page from Eddy Swynar himself 
many years ago. 

I think this is what is called "collaboration".  :-)

I mention that I got almost all of it from Eddy and someone from whom he 
got much of it, down a bit on that page.

As I implied above, I think Eddy is being his usual bashful self: after all he 
supplied most of the info I published on my website about the filters.

I think you are being too kind, Eddy. As I said, I got most of it from you. I am 
not going to claim something that is not totally mine. I have to give credit 
where credit is due.

The document Eddy is talking about is on my webpage in PDF format so you 
can download it and print it at leisure.

If any of you need the URL again, I can provide that easily enough.

You can start by going to:

vy 73 to all,
