RGR That, but I didn't have to Google it.  Lou Bitton (Ampex Instructor) used the "Sloan Valve" as an example of a "Retriggerable One shot" as opposed to a "Triggerable One shot" which is like the standard flush toilet most of us have in our homes.  You can keep hitting the flush lever on a "Sloan Valve" and the water will keep running, whereas the other you have to wait for the tank to fill up.  No problem for the guys in the South who have out houses.

We have some interesting Armstrong  correspondence here between himself and  WW Salisbury.  He was using a tube called a 'Resnatron' ( yea we are looking  for  a whole one) that had been developed  by Sloan to  pump cyclotrons, but famously used in a 50,000 watt German night fighter RADAR jammers (code name TUBA) in the UK during WW2  ...  Anyway  Armstrong letter mainly dealt  with   parts  for the tube ( yea it was  a field re-buildable monster!....  THE  LAST LETTER IN THE FOLDER TO SETTLE A BILL WAS.....  FROM..... THE ARMSTRONG ESTATE....  KIND OF HAUNTING  TO  LOOK AT  THIS  DOCUMENT....
