Re: [IRCA] SRF-59 Alignment: The Big Picture

["Ira Elbert New, III" <ien3@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gary,

     You're too kind. However, I assure you that tackling anything electronic by me would result in disaster. As a result, I tend to shy away from almost anything other than turning things on and off, and listening. Call me inept and I won't mind at all.

     I'm sure Steve will read this and perhaps offer to run to my rescue. I can't say that my SRF-59 suffers from anything negative having only opened it up yesterday. Maybe in time I will discover it doesn't need anything at all except someone who will listen to it from time-to-time. 

     Thanks again. 73 and Good DX!
