Unfortunately it’s going to be raining here till next Thursday so l will post some indoor measurements over the weekend. It’s not deal but will give an indication of the 2430, 0476 and 2451...

I’ve been to that outlet several times. It’s a venue fit out and hire business. There’s no legacy equipment for sale. That was 30 years ago or more.
