Glad to hear Col Perry was present. That's a 109.

Thank you everybody for the very kind words on the projects. The ATB in particular needs a lot of love. Great to see everybody. I did see some WW2 stuff for sale, and was able to pick up a USN marked shock mount for my next GF/RU project ( again, museum bound ). Also saw a BC-62O and BC-659 in good cosmetic condition, with the AN-29-C antenna, but in unknown electrical condition, with power supply but no other accessories for $600 each  - good for known working sets without accessories, otherwise maybe $300. They hadn’t sold when I left in the afternoon.  I also saw USAAF radios in various degrees of needing some love. Not much WW2 ground forces radio stuff other than the radios mentioned above.
