Thank you Tim

That's a mighty nice wish, but I was hoping for something like finding a 621-TS at a yard sale for $20
(now where's that icon for Hell freezing over)

Eric

That stuff does happen, I found a damn near MINT 8TS30 in the garbage on the way to work about 2 years ago.

It's Rob's now....hey Rob, got any pics of my garbage find?

Eric,

Happy BD. May you be as lucky as Tim and find great treasures at curbside like this Channel 1, 8TS30 with back and a raster.

Hey Eric, Happy bd! 29, right???
I tried to bake you a cake with 6au6's instead of candles but could not figure how to keep the icing from melting.

Marlin,

Go ahead and make that cake for our Birthday Boy Eric! Use 1B3's and you'll be fine. If you want more candle look use 1X2B's.

Eric make sure you discharge them after blowing them out so you don't get zapped!

Rob

Thanks!

Thanks guys for all the good wishes!.

Rob, Tim, that's an astonishing find on the 8-TS-30

That would never happen here in Calif, it would wind up in an Antique Mall listed as early 1900's and a price of $750


Tim, didn't I get this set from you a couple years ago, on eBay?


Eric
