All of them Chris, you are the master of electrics my friend, you can do it.
WELL Garry cant do what i wanted to do with a double pole two way switch as the switch needs 3 wires an there is only 2 neg wires goin to sound unit so it ethier one or the other an l like the main guns goin alternatatly an you will see if you look at the wirein diogram so im stuck but at least i'll have the main guns goin alternatatly so im happy an un happy at how much time i wasted on the 3 inch guns keep them as spares

Many thanks Bri62 but Garry (tworrs) has shown its not too hard as he has never built one before an look at the startiling proggress he has made an in record time as he is flyin along compared to me on my tiger to just get the hull built was over a yr but mind you tiger is bigger but Garry has amazed me on his build of HMS IRON DUKE F234
