Subject: [Leica] Help on Cable Release for Telyt

I have a 400mm f/6.8 Telyt, with the handle arm rest.  I would like to put
a cable release on the handle, and there seems to be a rather large
cylindrical space disposed through the handle in which one would slide such
a cable release.

Does anyone know how this is done?  The space seems rather wide; more than
is needed for the usual release.

It's made to fit the Leica electric release, that plugs in to the winder or
motor drive.  There's a small set screw that you can see from the top of
the mounting plate (where the lens is attached to the shoulder stock) that
is used to secure the release in place.  I don't know the catalog number (I
sold my release along with the winder a few months ago).
