Hey Dave

Let me know what you have on the For Sale block. Seems that I have been having a few people asking for rigs here lately.

Gaithersburg MD and now the Fredrick MD Father's Day Hamfest. What 
next? I hope they find a solution. Thanks to the LARG reflector for 
passing this along. 

Do not forget the hamfest at Richmond Va this coming Saturday, Feb 7, at 
the racetrack.
