Very kind, thanks. I still have a few spares in case I need a fast 
driver (they don't make'em no more like they used to) but I really don't 
see a need to fix that test box anymore. And it's only one of three 
channels.

Lots of memories there. At the RF institute we had that HP-141T analyzer 
and hardly anyone else could use it. So I kind of "owned it" for years.

Paul's lab looks very tidy and clean. When I showed my wife the late Jim 
William's lab bench and office desk she almost screamed "But I hope 
yours will never look like this!":
