  • Good to see you back. Doing very well, myself. Hope things are going well for you as well. I've been keeping busy (and my mind off all the virus crap) with multiple vintage restoration/re-build projects:

    1)  Heathkit AA-1640 Superamp restoration in progress (1970's).
    2)  Stromberg Carlson ASR-433 tube amp re-build in progress (1959-61).
    3)   Hewlett Packard Model 330B Distortion Analyzer restoration (1950's).
    4)  Heathkit TT-1A tube tester re-cap/recalibration in progress (1970's).
    5)  EICO 232 Vacuum Tube Volt Meter (VTVM) restoration (1960's).
    6)  Revox A77 reel-to-reel re-build in progress (1974?).
    7)  Single 32 + dual 180mm tower project in progress.
    8)  Vintage Win XP (2002) desktop recap (in the computer world, 2002 is vintage).

    Wow. You got your hands full! My health is good as well, my business took a good hit in the last year but we’re getting that worked out now.

    I don’t know yet. I seen it’s on the same weekend my wife is going Antelope hunting. I just started looking at speakers again and I see theres hardly anything to buy or it’s jacked in price. I could finish some of these projects from a year ago I guess.🙃

    It would be interesting if you did a writeup on the gear.

    Guess she’s going from the 1st to 4th now. So maybe, I reserved a room already.

  • Bring her with. It was fun talking to you and her in SD. She's a teacher right?

    I only have writeups for two of them. Both are still a work in progress.

    Somewhat… it’s a little more on the conversion side of software.. GIS is involved but not everyday aspect.


  • She got one! So I guess you will c my ugly mug in Iowa.

  • Pronghorn? Here I was thinking mule-deer.
    I prefer white-tail to mule-deer in terms of meat flavor.
