Hi Gang: I went on a trip to one of the local electronic/scrap stores today, and noted that they have about twenty CPU and other boards from some sort of Tandem machine for sale. They're marked $10 each (that's about $6.50 US) but one could probably haggle with success. Is anyone on the list into Tandem? There hasn't been any discussion of Tandem and their "non-stop" line (read as "full stop" for those with any hands-on experience with the machines) on the list at all, in my recollection. I'm not into Tandem either, but if anyone's interested I can call the store owner for further info this week. Kevin -- Kevin McQuiggin VE7ZD mcquiggi(a)sfu.ca
