<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Attached I have a photo of a rather different
type of tuning fork. There are some parts missing which makes identifying it
rather difficult. The plate on it suggests that it is controlled by a 3 volt
battery, and the tuning fork itself vibrates at G 11. It is 218mm or 8 1/2"
long. My first impression was that it perhaps came from a medical practice for
deaf people, or the like. It is made in Japan and is over twenty years old. It
has a number 100 stamped into the base of the fork and has two fine flat springs
attached to the top of the prongs.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>There is a copper coil attached to two terminals
which could indicate the transferring of sound from there to a speaker
perhaps!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I would be very interested if someone can come up
with an identification of this item.</FONT></DIV>
