[TenTec] Off-topic: Walker Tompkins, K6ATX books

[Duane Calvin, AC5AA]

Please excuse the off-topic post - thought some here might be interested in these items before they disappear.  I'm working with my teenage nephew to get his license, and thought a few of the Walker Tompkins ("Tommy Rockford") adventures might be fun for him.  The ARRL has recently discontinued these books and they no longer have any stock of them.  I exchanged notes with them to determine that HRO and "Books, Etc." (in Nevada) were the last ones to purchase stock from the ARRL.  They are still in stock at HRO, and I just ordered a set.  If you know a teen boy who might be interested in radio, these are good educational entertainment - the original editions helped get me started!  Anyway, get 'em while they're still available.
