[GreenKeys] Volpe board help...

[Ralph Irish]

Maybe it is time to take some kind of poll and see if it might be worthwhile for Eric Volpe
to make another run of his products.  They are  NOT  something that one would logically
consider making a half dozen of.  If the count got up into the 'several dozen range', or a
bit over 50, he might consider another run of the items.

I would take a pair of them or even two pairs to help the count grow.  I would also be willing
to pay in advance and  NOT  sit, tapping my foot until they arrive.  Such an activity needs
time, and whatever that timeframe is would be the waiting time for all.

How about it, Eric?  How many tentative and certain orders would it take for you to 'tool up'
again and make another run? 

Thanks, by the way, for the last run.  I got a pair of the items then.

Over the past four to five months, I’ve been trusting the building of the board to a local, young ham - the wunderboy, as I call him ;p … really good at circuits.  I bought him a bunch of tools, clean boards, acid, etc… he etched three boards (he’s hoping that he measured everything out right), has a part list, but that’s all the further he’s ever got ;o … he just started college and - I admit, even though it’s a volunteer job - he has admitted himself that he’s been procrastinating.  I would really like it to get done - so that I can finally hook it up to my computer, communicate on it with Jordan Spencer Cunningham and maybe someday even receive NWS bulletins over it, but for now ;o ...

I’m thinking about looking locally first with some other hams, but if all else fails, would anyone here be willing to lend a hand ;o ?  I’d pay for all the components to be shipped, along with any additional fees that one would like.  Been a little frustrated with the progress thus far - partially due to my shortcomings, but hope that someday the job can get done :) .  Please contact me directly if it’s a possibility ^_^ ~
