Topband: Speking of Hardline

[Pete Smith N4ZR]

I don't know about anyone else's cable company, but when the prices of 
scrap metal went up a few years ago Comcast emptied out their local 
scrap yard.  Actually, I'm just supposing that's the reason. I got a lot 
of good stuff there while they were willing to let it go.
