Hi Bob:
Had a shop with three complete benches, then the basement, now I share a room with my best friends a Collie and Sheltie.  They don’t bother me they just bark once in a while, but always happy to see me.  Life is good!   

You’ll have to go to Colorado and get some cannabalish or whatever it’s called to mix with the cleaning solutions that your wife uses.  Both of you will get along just fine --- at least for a day or two.

A great day to you --- Kindest regards Jim K9AXN

There is another of these that does also does a remarkable job.

Specifically the R-42 Producer.

I've brought the 8 ohm with plain old electrical zip cord.

I can use the 500 or 600 feed, or can indeed go direct with 8 feed.

I have managed to obtain two of these.  I'm more than happy with both.

One is attached to my Northern Radio Variant SP-600.

The den/shack still isn't a completed project.  The XYL has interrupted 
the process for the moment.  She wishes to use TSP to clean the cheap 
paneling, and to then paint over it.  To a degree, my patience is 
wearing a bit thinner than usual.

I truly wish to gain back MY space.

Sincerely, Regards,
Robert "Bob" Bethman
