Thanks for the kind words!

Please tell Scotti and Dottie I said Hello and show them the pictures  
if you have time.  They look really fine in the sidecar. Help make it  
look newer.

Scott's longevity with Tek products enables him to know the details  
about stuff that is amazing. I wish that info could be preserved.

If you get a chance, ask him how it performs going up and over the  
Grapevine with a full load.  Will it keep rolling at 60 going up the  
grade?

You look so relaxed.

Are you sure it wasn't 1984 or later?  Looks like these machines were  
in Ampex cabinets like the ones I've got. They really made the package  
look sharp.  I like the turntable on the pullout shelf.
