    An idea which the authors should like to explore is the possibility that the Nahm transformation between two sets of self-dual Yang-Mills equations actually extends also to some sort of transformation between non-self-dual solutions. The aim of the paper is to describe some modest discoveries that are quite interesting. In particular the authors demonstrate the existence of simple solutions to the second order equations which interpolate between self-dual and antidual solutions, and explore some of their properties.
