[SMCARA] Is courtesy dead?

[Chris KC3DIG]

Seriously, is courtesy dead?

I'd like to personally thank Tom and Pete for all of the time and effort 
they've spent on our sick "64" machine. I look forward to it being back 
up and running since I only have an HT but I understand that things take 
time (or money). I'm sure that all of the driving back and forth, 
research and testing during their (unpaid) free time gets old. I think 
that most of us greatly appreciate your efforts guys. I encourage the 
grumps to head to HRO or eBay with a credit card for a new repeater if 
they feel so strongly about the situation, the club will gladly take the 
donation and the problem will be immediately resolved. But I'm sure Tom 
and Pete would still be nice enough to fix the current machine so we'd 
finally have that backup. They're swell guys like that.

And now back to storm prep.

Cheers & 73,
