New First Open Diapason

The New First Open Diapason. The old one had been removed when Balcom and Vaughan renovated the organ and added their own new principal chorus. The spot was left open presumably because there were no more stop tabs available. With the solid state console, we were able to add it back. So now there are two diapasons on the Great as there were originally, except now both are outside the swell box.
