[GreenKeys] Re: Fax Machine Used in Flags of our Fathers

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

AFAIK, mine hasn't run since it came out of Depot.  Dan Dolan has an NOS 
RC-58-B mounted in one of his Command Cars but I don't think he has tried to run 
it.

And I forgot to mention I also have the table.  And some spare styluses if 
you ever need some, Dick.
