The .pdf in our possession is the 1st May 2016 edition. The paper copy is the 21st July 2016 edition. There may be numerous differences between the two. I therefore will scan the entire later edition as an image file set and let you have it.
As the present custodian of Karen's Timing Corrector, perhaps I should make clear that the existing unit will not be modified - but preserved untouched, to be used and enjoyed as it is. Discussions about possible developments, chip updates and other improvements could be useful and interesting though, since they might lead to the development (and eventual construction) of another design: perhaps a 'club' Timing Corrector(?) Such discussions are likely to remain well above my head!

The frame rate will remain at 25Hz for 90-lines. In Karen's own words: "lines are identified by simple counting". Both line and frame pulses are taken from the Aurora. The frame pulse resets the count.
