Rich and Gang:

I would very much like to join in on this recognition of Frank K3MTT. 
Frank and I go back about 30 years so I have many memories working with 
him. There are pictures of Frank in our club albums which could add to 
the presentation.

I will be at the viewing this evening and at his service tomorrow as well...

He will be missed...

The show and tell is not really about a Federal tube radio - it's about Frank and what he meant to me in terms of getting back into the hobby and what he meant as a friend.  (When I first met him, he fixed that radio for us.)  So if any you want to say something, or have something to show relating to Frank, join in.  I think Andy is going to introduce it with a few words about Frank.  I plan to be at the viewing tonight and the service tomorrow.  Hope to see you there.
