Peter,
It is indeed somewhat of a coincidence that we should find ourselves working together again. I have found it best not to question these occurrances but to accept them with good grace. I believe the 'hot chick' to whom you are referring was Ensign Bristow. You may be interested to hear that she is now a retired Admiral, who serves the Engineering Corps in a part-time advisory capacity. I also have the pleasure of working closely with her granddaughter who, I am pleased to say, is following in her grandmother's footsteps.
It is a shame you do not have any GG223s available. I believe there may be mileage in your proposition to use the initial buffer array to the pattern enhancer from an XD47827. Having examined the schematics I have determined that it should be possible to perform a soft reconfiguration on a GG219 to allow successful attachment of the array. Simply reduce the lateral component of the modulated waveform by half, and code in a regular spike of energy in the mid-range flow (approximately once every 37 milliseconds should suffice). Make sure to reverse the connections on the port on the buffer array and attach with a section of DG-9 cable. Somewhat crude, but I believe it should be effective.
I am somewhat at a loss as to what to suggest you use for an OSBN coupling. This may sound somewhat odd, but may I inquire what the make and model the coffee percolator is?
Regards,
Lt. Comm. Sponn
