Many years ago, I sold a couple AVR/AVT pairs to a fellow in Bellevue, WA, who was
getting them for people who had flying WWII observation planes, the Cessna or Stinson
things. I said this disclaimer, "I do not know if these work". His reply, "That's alright,
they're going to empty them out anyway". Yes, that saved them 3 lbs. I still feel upset
in the gut when I think about that, but I was already committed. Now, I have the don't
give a damn what you think spirit, and I'd say, "Well, this deal has just cancelled".  This is
kind of the direction the Whidbey experience went. I recall also "German reenactor"
type, irate, telling me, "It's my radio and I can do what I want!", in service of their play-
acting, having "authentic" audio coming out from it. Oh well, that does make the yet
unmolested examples more cherished today. - Hue Miller
