[R-390] Thank You

[DAVEINBHAM@aol.com]

Dear R-390 Drivers,
Thank you for all the nice e-mails you have sent to me since last night. I 
came home around lunch time today and printed out several of them and took 
them over to the hospital to my wife. Right now her vision is so poor from 
compliciations of the medicines she is taking that she could not read them. ( 
Her doctors say that is temporary and, hopefully, her vision will eventually 
be restored to normal.) So, I read them to her. They seemed to cheer her ( 
and therefore me too ) up a lot. She told me to thank all of you. So, thank 
you. Those kind words mean more to us than you will ever know.
Oh, yeah. Gotta make this R-390 related in some way. Seems several of you are 
already snowed in and asked me to reserve a recap kit in your name until you 
can get to the post office. OK, done. There are still 6 recap kits available 
with under-the-chassis capacitors and 5 for in-the-can ones. 
I think most of you realize I do not do the recap kits  for the meager profit 
involved but rather for the satisfaction I get from it. Every time I ship a 
recap kit I say to myself
" Well, Dave, maybe you have made a small contribution to keeping another one 
of these old radios alive." Whether it is really true or not is probably 
immaterial. It makes me feel good. So, thank you for buying the recap kits. 
I have personally answered many of the nice e-mails concerning my wife, but 
there were more of them than I have time to answer right now, so I just want 
to say to all of you on this list " THANK YOU". You have brought happiness 
this day to one very sick lady, my wife. 

Kindest regards,
