Subject: [NavList] Modern sextant production. Reply from SNO-T factory.
Few weeks ago,
I wrote an e-mail (in English) to the director of the SNO-T
factory in StPeterburg, asking about SNO, and refering
to their advertisement on the Internet.
Today I received an official reply (in Russian) which says:
"This is to let you know that our enterprize no longer makes
the SNO-T product."
(My translation). Signed by the Head of the Planning Department
T. G. Trebkova.

Thak you Alex.
Too bad, it is(was) such an outstanding instrument.
I wrote them a letter of inquiry (physical mail) in english to their adress in St-Peterburg 4 or 5 years ago and never had the chance to get any answer, whether in Russian or in any other form.
