[NJARC] Stromberg Carlson 846

[Joe Cro]

Hello Scott,
                 If possible, could you send a picture or two of your S-C 
model 846 to my email address? I have a model 842 from 1929, and wonder what 
the differences are between the two models. They could be completely 
different, but I'd like to see for myself.

The best of luck with your new acquisition. It sounds like you really like 
it!

Best Regards,
                     Joe Cro N3IBX
