Steve,

Although my Argosy wasn't my first radio, it was my first _new_ radio. Like 
you, about 15 years ago I decided to move on. I subsequently sold it but 
shortly thereafter started "kicking myself" as the quip goes.

A few years later I was in the flea market at an area hamfest when a friend of 
mine who knew that I liked Ten-Tec equipment said "there's a nice-looking 
Argosy a few rows over." I went to the table he indicated, started looking at 
the radio, and turned it around to look at the back panel. I suspect someone 
would have liked to have had a camera handy as I read the serial number and 
then looked up to see the guy I had sold it to a few years before.

Needless to say, it went home with me that day and it's still sitting in the 
shack.

Just my $0.02 worth HI HI!!

73, Al
