No, that was ages ago and I doubt that the station has it, or the unit.

A couple of other units I have encountered were one made by Orange County
Electronics in Manitoba.  A nice-sounding processor but it eventually had
problems and then I discovered that the schematics I had weren't true to the
unit; it was a ripoff of a British processor that sued them and they were
out of business.  I sent it to a processor "guru" in San Francisco and it
came back in pieces.  I eventually got it working, but by then had replaced
it with a pair of Valley People 440s.  Nice boxes because they had very good
de-essers.  I could get an extra bit of modulation because of that.
