Jim,

Well the story goes like this.  I have my motorhome parked with Karen's RV
repair service, down on Ship Creek awaiting repir sometime over the winter.
On 17 Noveamber 2005 apparently in the evening someone cut through the
chainlink fencing and broke into several motorhomes.  I was one of the lucky
ones.  Apparently the thieves gained access through the drivers door.
Inside they rifled through belongings.  While there were many personal items
stored inside along with alot of ham gear of various vintages and values,
they were discreet enough to pick the best available taking my newly
repaired Kenwood TS-140 which was in its original factory supplied box.
Somehow they did not make off with the mic, power cord or manual.  Rather
sloppy of me I guess :)

The other item selected was a rig acquired from Don Roher, NL7QT.  This rig
is a Yeasu FT-817, a multi-band unit.

So my load is lighter.  Don is trying to scrape up the serial number on the
Yeasu.  The serial number on the TS-140 is; 0101374.

Thanks Jim,
