You're right on the spelling Ron.  Gie.  I went out in my goodie box and found one in a package with instructions.  We should explain it wasn't a pot, just the wiper, but it made a big difference with cermet elements that would wear holes in the brass wipers.  The good old days.

A Rhett story.
I got to the Nats on the last day of qualifying in 1972 and Bill Salkowski said I should see this kid that is up just before him.  Turns out the kid was great but the judges had never heard of him and so he didn't qualify for the finals.
The next year the boys from the South talked him up all year and he had it won before he got there.
There is a big message here.  The game is a lot more complicated than just flying well.  If you want to win you need to understand the game.

Hey all you old guys, do you want to buy some Geizendanner (sp?) pots?
  I think I'm going to pretend that I don't know what you're talking about.  
  BTW, I think it's Giezendanner.  Geez!  That seems like forever ago that we fiddled with pot replacement every 50 flights or so.  The wuss pilots these days wouldn't put up with that.
