True enough -- but what other display have you found that will match the
size of the original Litton unit and that can do 5 lines by 25
characters??  Not saying the Noritake is the right answer just that it's
the best I've come across so far...admittedly not without
problems...better alternatives anyone??

Cheers,

Mark.
