[GreenKeys] A few things, questions and comments

[Andy KN4UCL]

Hey Eugene.. yeah mine is a splendid metallic green/blue... rather
futuristic (if you ignore the fact that my "restoration" thus far has been
a pig's breakfast 😀)

Here are some photos:  https://sites.google.com/view/28asr

I got mine from Steve (N4TTY) 3-4 years ago... which reminds me I need to
get busy!

cheers!
