Used Heath gear at "Ross distributing"

[Multi-Volti Devices]

Let me qualify/dis-qualify my previous statement.

Some of the letters received at Heath were not always from sound minds.
Anyone on this list who worked in service saw some pretty horrifying
attempts at assembly, and anyone who was in the Technical Consultation dept.
saw some real wacko letters. So, Ross Distrib. may have been selected by
some luny who wrote to us with a hare-brained complaint.

Someone out there MUST remember the guy who was certain the 'government' had
put a microphone or 'bug' in his dental filling sto monitor him. He wanted
Heath's help building a 'jammer', basically to 'foil' the gov't monitoring
him.

I never got to talk to him, but I hear he used to call alot and differetn
consultants would take turns talking to him.
