Nope. I had one of those models. The electronic flash attaches by the standard slide in mount on the top center of the camera. I got mine at Service Merchandise in Knoxville around 1980. It was the Consumer Reports top rated rangefinder.

From Elkins, WV, Intermountain:

Squirrel Blamed for Cable Outage
By CARRA HIGGINS, Staff Writer

Some local squirrels may have given up their nut diet and developed an appetite for utility lines. Sudden Link Communication workers have discovered evidence pointing to "rogue" squirrels as the cause of several long cable outages, according to Sudden Link Director of Operations Peter Brown.

On July 24, Sudden Link pinpointed an area of the fiber cable line with damage feeding off Rich Mountain, Brown said. The squirrels likely climbed on telephone wires to access the cable lines, Brown said.

Since July 24, the suspected squirrel or squirrels have gnawed through the fiber cable line five times - each causing outages throughout areas of Randolph County, according to Brown.

"It was comical at first, but it's no longer comical," Brown said.

After replacing the line four times within a week, only to have the line succumb to more damage, Sudden Link had to make a decision to ensure their customers would receive cable uninterrupted by squirrels.

To combat additional squirrel related damage to fiber cable lines, Sudden Link Crews began installing "armored" fiber cable lines in area of activity Thursday, according to Brown. The upgrade of the line was expected to be completed early this morning.

Workers must fix fiber lines manually, which involves hours of work, Brown explained.

"Our guys have worked days on this," Brown said. "We're trying to get this done as quickly as possible and appreciate our customers' patience."

Squirrels with a taste for cable lines are not unheard of, Brown said, adding that typically coaxial cable covered with aluminum falls prey to squirrels. Holes in the aluminum cause the lines to be exposed to elements, such as rain, Brown explained. However, fiber cable lines aren't a popular choice for squirrels.

Sudden Link has contacted the Division of Natural Resources for assistance with the rouge squirrels. However, the cable company isn't relying entirely on assistance from the DNR. Even if a single squirrel is caught, there may be more than one squirrel involved, which is why efforts are being concentrated on the armored lines, Brown said.

The areas with the armored cable lines should be protected, that is unless squirrels get sharper teeth, Brown joked.
