I tried my Sunpak 444D, T20, and Viv 4600 w/ded mod with both an OM-2S and
OM-1N. They all act differently with the ready light.  We know what the T20
does.  The Viv 4600 does the same thing with a vengeance (I mean it really
blinks the ready light like crazy).  Of course mine makes the ready light
blink even when it's just in stand-by mode.  The Sunpak has the least
interaction with the ready light:  it is on in stand-by, goes off when the
shutter is clicked, and the green ready light on the flash body does all
the blinking to indicate sufficient light.
