[Heathkit] Heathkit Manuals

[Carl]

Lee, you forgot another important ingredient:

Entertainment.

I enjoy tweaking the self important and from the private emails many are 
enjoying the relief from boredom, and the weather.

I dont think there have been 3-4 posts to the reflector from the BAMA 
removal weeks ago to yesterday; its not like we are using up much 
bandwidth.

What will be informative to your study is to see who will try and be the 
last one to reply to this post and therefore display his superiority.

Ive got radios to work on and the basement has finally warmed up, bye 
for now.

Carl
