Charles, et all

McHenry County Illinois is where we are looking for property.

Some of the collection will be installed at the Computer Museum of 
America (CMA) in downtown San Diego.  This first installation will be 
for the code breaking show opening on March 23rd: "Secrets, Lies, and 
Teletypes".  See: http://www.computer-museum.org

Option 1:  The rest except a few items necessary for me to operate a 
station in Illinois might be stored by the San Diego development 
commission until arrangements are made for the museums (CMA and 
NADCOMM)  to relocate to the former U.S. Naval Training Center in San 
Diego.

Option 2: The rest of the equipment might be hauled back to Illinois 
where we are looking for about 2-5 acres and a building suitable for 
a museum with semi-public access.

Option 3:  The whole NADCOMM collection except for the equipment 
installed at CMA might move to Chicago in a location dedicated to 
Western Electric and Teletype Corporation supported by the Chicago 
Historical Society and the Communications Society of the IEEE.

You see I am not going to stop until my dream is a reality.

Thank you for asking!  I am sitting here thinking about all of you 
that have supported my efforts over the last eighteen years.  The 
first donation was from Pulsecom, a division of Hubbell Corporation, 
in 1984.  (Two 35 ASRs and a 35 RO).

Best wishes from your friend,
Don
