Rick,
The simple answer is, "not that I know of or have access to"
The smart-aleck in me, however, could come up with a whole HOST of wise cracks,
which would amuse a few and probably inadvertently insult many. And you
wouldn't want me to get into trouble with the list moderator, now would you?
Seriously, though, the stock of spare parts went SOMEWHERE. No doubt that some
individuals bought up whatever spare parts they themselves might need, probably
some other small companies purchased parts they could use, and I wouldn't at
all be surprised if some would-be eBay 'store' owner acquired some in hopes of
making future profitable sales. So the story most likely has its roots in some
truth, somewhere. Where, I don't know.

Hi Ron,
Do we have a list of all TN hams with barns?

There was a story floating around that about the time that Ten Tec moved,
someone in the area bought a huge stockpile of assorted spare parts.
Allegedly enough to fill a barn.
So it's certainly possible.

I've noticed small caches of old TT boards/parts going up for sale on eBay
from a user in Tennessee; I wonder if that fellow bought up all the stuff
when they moved?
