It's great to see everybody listed all at once. Congratulations everyone on completing a project that most hams will never do. You have built a receiver that sounds great and is fun to listen to. Many of you have learned a lot along the way and I appreciate all the nice notes. Honestly, when we began Bill asked me how many receivers I thought would get built and I told him about a dozen. So the fact that we have nearly 60 done and another dozen or so on the way is very gratifying. Fine business and bravo zulu to all. 73, Dean
