Hi Steve,
Thanks for those 2 stores, and I will check them out!
Well, it's only a hobby, however, I studdied my but off, and got an extra class license, and want to use it. So, it's not just a hobby, it's a huge hobby. If I don't have that, what do I have? If you guys, all of you, only knew the number of people leaving this hobby, it would boggle your minds. And I've always wondered, has anybody gave a damn enough to ask these people leaving the hobby, "so, tell me why you're leaving, and maybe I can help you with the cause of your leaving.
Trippy, ac8s

  I usually buy everything from HRO, since I can get next day delivery 
  from the Delaware store, but they aren't the only game in town.   Both 
  Giga parts, and R and L  show it in stock.   Of course a phone call may 
  result in a different answer, but I wouldn't climb out on the ledge just 
  yet.    Keep repeating to yourself"It's only a hobby, it's only a hobby..."

  73 and good luck, Steve KW3A
