[TMC] [Boatanchors] OT: Help sought to transport

[Larry WA9VRH]

Hi Eugene,

How about checking out Greyhound?  Or some other regional bus company.  Or 
maybe a local trucking company that may make that trip once in awhile.  As I 
read your message again getting it across the border maybe the problem??
