[OM] flash for XA2

Hi Zuiks:

I have sent off for a working A-11 flash for my XA2.

 I also bought a non-working A-11 from KEH, with plans to gut the unit, and
use the shell to rig up a PC contact, as described in the Olympus XA repair
FAQ. The FAQ author admits he did this with a XA, and has not tried it with
the XA1,2,3,4.  I was going to use the XA2/A-11 shell on a BG2 with a T32
flash.

Has anyone tried anything this foolish?  If so, how much correction did you
have to dial into the T32 panel for acceptable exposures?  If I glued (epoxy
Walt, epoxy!) a shoe to the top of the unit, would it hold a T20?  Any other
good ideas?

Thanks!

Bill Stanke
