[HBR] HBR-16 and LWM-3

[Stan McIntosh]

Kees,

Thank you for posting items like this.  It's all I can do to not snag the
HBR-16, but I have some medical bills for my daughter coming up.  Please
keep posting as things like this come up, and thanks!  I can't tell you how
many times I've thought about bothering you with questions as to whether
you knew of an HBR for sale, so it's nice to know that, if you found one,
it'll pop up.
