[Boatanchors] 8640 Gears and W5WP's email

[Bob]

To those needing broken gear for HP8640B.


Here is another of the original emails Dave, W5WP sent.   If Dave is 
still receptive and no one else sends the gears to him, I will try to 
get mine apart sometime this week or as soon as I can... and send them 
to him.
