[TenTec] Under the Dirt...a Diamond!

You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone!

Did the same with my 509.
Was I happy to get it back!

That can happen... after about fifteen years of ownership I decided it was 
time to move on rig wise so I sold my original owner Argosy. Needless to
say, 
it wasn't too long until I started kicking myself (so to speak.) A few years

later I was at a hamfest in Tulsa. A friend of mine who knew that I was a 
Ten-Tec aficionado told me "there's a nice looking Argosy on a table a few 
rows over."

I went over to take a look, and I'm guessing someone would have liked to
have 
had a picture of the expression on my face when I turned it around and 
recognized the serial number. I looked up: "Oh, hi, Glen!" (the guy I'd sold

it to.)

Needless to say, it came back home with me and probably won't be sold again 
until it's through my estate....

73, Al
