Thanks to the eagle-eyed surfers out there, two of whom mailed me to say that they thought there was a mistake in the above table!  They were absolutely right of course - there is no way swell pistons would be both above and below the great keys.  
Cut and paste would be a great tool for a lazy sod like me, if only I would open my eyes !!

For the opening recital, two large screens were set up using two camera feeds, so that the congregation could have a birds-eye view of what was going on at the console.  The output of one of the cameras was fed to a video recorder, and copies of the video produced are available.  Contact me below. 
Here is a photo of the church interior showing the afternoon's preparations well under way.


Note the computer is still ready to make any last minute voicing changes!
That's my brother John setting up one of the LCD projectors at the LHS, and Dad in the middle.
The case panel is off at the LHS because we were still chasing 32' rattles!

Finally a closer view of the south case.

The "microphone" on the RHS of the picture is actually one of the video cameras!
