*Just like my Grand Dad used to say " Some people would complain if you
hung them with a new rope." *

**
*How about this idea. All of you folks that are so displeased with your
Latest and Greatest Ten Tec Gear, Just send it to my listed QRZ Address and
I will dispose of it Properly for you. Geez, the best I can afford is the
Paragon. It is a Work Horse and I LOVE IT! I can not IMAGINE the advances
that have been made since the Paragon. Here I am fellows, just ship those
Malfunctioning Radio's to me for Proper Disposal........ I will even
pay HALF on the shipping!*
**
*Hope you all know that I am just trying to make a point. Some people would
complain that the seats in their Rolls Royce are too soft. *
*                                                                     73 to
all de Wade/KJ4WS*
*Note: If a new Orion or Omni VII shows up on the door step I would wet my
pants for sure........*
