Front derailleur shift range problem

Evening,

Well, I am one problem away from finishing my Motobecane GR restoration. Here's the deal.

I have a 46/30 double TA crankset, and am trying to use my Campy Super Record front derailleur. The shifter can't handle the spread between the 46/30 combo (at least where I have it positioned. Is anyone running this combo successfully? If it is just too big a spread for this DR, can anyone suggest a shifter that can? It's my preference to stick w Campy, but it is also my preference to be able to shift up to the larger chainring, so I'm open to anything.

Thanks for your help.
