Hadn't thought about Heathkits in a long, long time, found this list by
accident a couple of weeks ago.  It's obviously a valuable resource for
vendors, collectors, restorers and users of Heathkits.   Saw in the
archives the names of a couple of people that I knew at one time, got to
wondering about a couple of guys I worked with at Heath (ca. 1978).
So, does anyone have contact info for ex-Heath employees Jim Cooperider
and Bob Furtaw?   Jim and Bob were both hams, Bob was also a licensed
pilot.  Jim C. was involved with the SB-104 design.  Bob F. worked for
Bob Carson then I guess maybe later for Lou Frenzel, did the ET-3400
(??) 6502 microprocessor trainer and was editor of REMark.

Also, not quite a Heath item (but a lot of them were built at sea), can
any of you who were R/O's with the ROU fill me in on what happened with
Tom Harper and the ROU?

Thanks/regards
