Everyone,

David put out the initial email on my behalf.  I soon after registered 
for some of the various Amsat mailing lists and followed along.  Thank 
you all very much for your insight.  I'm probably going to head off this 
Saturday to snatch the TH-F6A, my first handheld.

Cheers!
Joseph Armbruster, KJ4JIO
