I JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH OUR DEAR FRIENDS WIFE. OUR FRIEND IS BACK IN THE HOSPITAL AND NOT DOING VERY WELL. I SENT HER THE MONEY COLLECTED SO FAR, AND TOLD HER THAT MORE WILL BE COMING SOON. SHE WAS UNAWARE THAT WE WERE DOING THIS, AND IT BROUGHT HER TO TEARS. SHE ALSO WANTED ME TO PASS ALONG A THANK YOU FOR THE HELP.

Tom,

I would like to donate the Sherwood integrated I bought from you last year. I don't have the model # right now, but I can drop it off tonight - what time will you be around?

Also, please PM the paypal information.

Thanks

VHF PGH Members,

Hal and I would like to donate a few things to the auction.  Really sorry to hear about Mike, just talked to him day before yesterday.   We will see you this week with 4 nice units,

1.  Marantz model 27 receiver
2.  HK 430i Receiver
3.  Yamaha M35 Amp
4.  Sherwood  S7200 receiver.

All nice pieces and operating well.  The Sherwood power switch is broken, but I just put it on a power strip.  None will embarass the winner if put on display, all very nice looking.
