<DIV>Take the TR-3 at the same time as it could serve as a spare parts bin for
both machines. If all you are going to do is move the machine, then the
station can provide the muscle to load. And you hopefully have the unload
muscle at your end. I live in the Detroit area so to just do muscle is a
little bit extreme for driving a lot. Now since I am retired, I have no
problem with spending a week or so to get the machine working again.
</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The one thing that has to be done very carefully is to make sure the
interconnect harness between the main racks and the servo racks does not get
damaged. It will take a long time to rebuild that. The machine
may have been upgraded to Pixlock and ATC. That is something we can
ask. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>They may have other things in the storage area. Who knows what may be
there?</DIV>

<P>Well, most any day, if and when the station gives the OK to come pick it
up. Randy decides the day since he is the one making the trips.</P>
<P>Right now, I am working on a TR-70c restoration. It is a basket case. Wires
cut, pieces missing, you name it.We have gathered enough parts together
...finally. I will be on this project probably for another year. At
least.</P>
<P>Maybe you and Randy ought to figure it all out. Between the three of us,
and TAMIS archive, it will find a good home with one of us for sure.</P>

<DIV>When would you be doing this?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The other thing is do you have a place to start or would this be a move
and then months later get into the restoration?</DIV>

<DIV>I have been to WFIE and the folks are the nicest in the world. That
is the great thing about the Midwest. Good salt of the earth

<P>Great! Sounds like a plan. Actually, our driver lives in
Maryville. You want to go with him and load it up?</P>

<DIV>I would be glad to help restore it. I know that machine backwards
and forwards. It would have a home and that is the important
thing. The biggest thing will be getting the capacitors and
tubes. As long as the deck is in good shape, it will work.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Besides, my ancestors come from Maryville. My 5 great Grandfather
was the first clerk of the court for Bount County in Tenn.</DIV>

all,<BR> I got the following email today. I am very
