Thanks, well spotted. Must be the left over drugs and Vicodin pain killiers from my Hernia surgery today:-( Mike I believe the number should be 96832. 96822 is a dog hair clipper. Joe W4AAB _________
Hi, I have an existing stand alone base for my US Tower MA-40. I would like to incorporate my existing 3 x 3 x 4 foot base. The tower I would like to put up is the US Tower TX-455 which requires a 5
My Thanks to all who responded, I hope that I replied to all of you individually. The conclusion I have come to is that there are ways to solve this problem, but are not cost effective and practical

I wish people would heed All the advice about Steppir and their service and not buy one. I am now losing the advantage I had with my 3 element Steppir of 3 years over others, with all the thousands o
