I was busy with trash/heavy metal patrol and didn't get to attend
Wayne's talk, Clete. I'm sure someone will post about it somewhere,
though.

Eugene, the cabinet was a score from the back of a car before it ever
hit the ground. I saw it through a window as I was walking up after
the gate opening ended. The guy was setting up his tent and thought I
was stopping to ask him to move his car since it was out in the path a
bit. That unmistakable pattern of square holes caught my eye and was
confirmed by the chrome side handles. When he said $20, I didn't
bother to haggle!

Scored a nice 90 degree elbow connector marked AC56587-1  CLT-49068A
later in the day for a dollar from one of the many boxes of 'junk' at
one table. Looks like it fits a BC-191/375 or the RU/GF set ups. It
always pays to rifle through those boxes!
