[InHam] FOR SALE

[Larry WA9VRH]

Hi Will,

I am not in the area but I would be willing to donate $100.00 to the
purchase of the repeaters. Now all it would take would be another 26 people
to do the same thing. Come on folks let's not let these two repeaters go
away.

If you get the rest of the commitments please let me know where to send the
check to.
