[Racal] RE: RACAL Digest, Vol 43, Issue 1

Mon Dec 15 19:24:33 EST 2008

Hello Racal List...I am the proud daddy of an RA-17 that I had restored a couple years back. Unfortunately, I'm missing just about the most important part-The little red, slanted "RACAL" logo applique/decal that goes on the front...I'd LOVE to find, beg, borrow, steal, whatever one of these, as the radio just deems "Nekkid" w/o it..I'd be happy to pay any reasonable price for one. Please reply to Sandy Geiger, 217 Circle Drive, Rogersville, Tennessee, USA, 37857, or chg111)at(Hotmail.com Muchas Gracias !C.H.(Sandy)Geiger III> From: racal-request at mailman.qth.net> Subject: RACAL Digest, Vol 43, Issue 1> To: racal at mailman.qth.net> Date: Mon, 15 Dec 2008 04:02:30 -0500> > Send RACAL mailing list submissions to> racal at mailman.qth.net> > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit> http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/racal> or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to> racal-request at mailman.qth.net> > You can reach the person managing the list at> racal-owner at mailman.qth.net> > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific> than "Re: Contents of RACAL digest..."> > > Today's Topics:> > 1.
