[Heathkit] CL-33M Manual

[cemilton at aol.com]

 The last four words in Bob's, NØDGN,  message really sums up what many of us believe and practice when someone is in need of an item that is excess to us.  Most of the times, I find "payback" occurs when least expected.

Too bad this isn't done more often.

And Paul, keep the faith.  There are still hams out there who help without trying to retire on the income of their "sales".

Paul and Larry, 
 

The Amateur Radio community will continue to operate the way it has and 
does. 
 

There are MANY of us that will simply contact a ham off-list when a 
request for parts or documentation comes out on the list, AND simply 
send them what they need IF it is available. 
 

This is what I've been doing for years.  I *MAY* ask for postage if that 
is relatively excessive.  The last dozen or so times I haven't asked for 
anything, simply enclosing a note that said, "please doe the same for 
another.". 
 

*IF* one individual can't accept this, I have empathy for their 
mis-guided notions.  However, if THEY asked for something I have that I 
will not use or need, I would STILL send them the item(s) they needed, 
and with the same note inside. 
 

Yes, times are hard.  Finding "some" parts is even harder.  It is why 
the last thing out of here was a pair of 813 ceramic sockets.  They 
weren't NIB, they were used but cleaned up.  I used my *SAME* 
philosophy.  PLEASE PAY IT FORWARD.
