Add A Tenth Set Of Contacts

MikeFulk in a post to TheHammondForum has pointed out:

On M-100's and L-100's the actuators on both manuals have ten slots instead of nine. There are no contacts or busbar for the 10th slot(s), but think of the things one might do, e.g.:

• Key just about anything

  • MIDI (non-velocity-sensitive)
  • percussion keying

• add separate 13 contacts and short busbar so that pedals may be on manuals, add sub-third or sub-fundamental harmonic on lower manual... also, on lower manual add both sub-third and sub-fund by rewiring 10th and twelfth harmonics.

Apparently not all M-100's lend themselves to decibusification. An anonymous editor adds~:

  L-100s may have 10 slots in the actuators, 10 slots for busbars and 10 slots for contacts, but
  not _all_ M-100s have this "feature".

  In M-100s, there may be ten slots in the actuators.
  There may also be a tenth slot for a busbar but no insulated guide for that slot.
  *And* the contact boards have only *nine* slots.
  Based on my experience with an M-101 and an M-111.
