RIck,

Your message reminded me of when I was doing machine RTTY in the 1980s and
we moved into a house with hardwood floors. You might guess what is coming
next. Until I could get some carpet padding underneath the machine, my
licensed OM- but not really into the hobby- was not pleased at the beautiful
sounds coming from my Model 32ASR.

I can't imagine why.

73,

Cheryl, AA4YL
