Gary,

Thanks, guys.

Keeping a registry of the rare Millen items is a great idea. I keep a 
Collins KW-1 registry - see here:
http://www.isquare.com/personal_pages/kw1-list.htm

Nothing fancy - no database required; just a simple HTML table. I'll 
happily do this for the 90711 as a start to see how it goes. I can keep it 
on my site and reference it from the JMS site; eventually the entire JMS 
site will be available from my server (kind of a mirror) for faster 
response. (Don, okay by you?).

Later on I'll post a listing describing the differences between #150 and 
#330. There are more than you might think. Hi.

73, Bob
