I have one of those "all purpose" kits too. Black, zipper closed and could
hold 3 readers digests if cleaned out. So useless I have no clue where it may
be today. Grass Valley gave it out at the NAB a good 25 years ago. I haven't
tossed it, packrat that I am. It's here someplace. And I do have my hand on
a bible.
