Thanks. I've found that R-J was absorbed by American Optical, which in turn 
wasabsorbed by Leica. Operation is easy. I'd just like to have a user's 
guide of spec for comfort. Thanks for the listserv name. The person who 
told me about the demise of R-J, mentioned a listserv but didn't have the name.
