[TowerTalk] Mystery Vertical: a Mosley RV-x Model?

[Larry WA9VRH]

Hi Gordon and all,

Just looked in a 1995 Mosley catalog and this looks like RV-8C which 
included 75/80. I will try later to scan the image and send to you.  I may 
also still have the assembly manual from mine. I am in the middle of 
painting a bedroom and need to get back to that project.
