[1000mp] Help InRad Key Click mod

Sat, 31 Jan 2004 18:13:53 -0800 (PST)

Here is a Novel Idea....

How about the ones with steady hands and good Eyes try to
help out the ones with less steady hands and poor eyesight.

You could put up a message like:

     Any one in Such an Such a Town willing to help do the
     mods, install the filters, etc. for less able ham.

     Will pay with Gratitude, and old War stories.

Sounds like a good deal to me.

Only provision is that the Helper is not held liable for any damages.

That is my standard for free work.
