Chuck,
The Olympus interval timer is only a two conductor bayonet. I don't
remember if the 2 conductor bayonet can be used in a 3 conductor or no.
Looks like the 2 might work in the stereo. In any case what would be
slick is if I could squeeze a bayonet socket into the switch body.
Then I wouldn't have to butcher clone shutter cable up for the
connector, and I could use any circuitry that might be there too. I
think it's a long shot, but I'll look at it when I get it.
