reed switches for weather station, P/N 65-49

[David Ely]

Dear Heath experts -
While Googling the 'net to find a source of replacement reed switches for my 18-year old Heath weather station, I ran across your list and the email below.  Could not figure a way to email only Mr. Wendler, so am sending this email to the whole list hoping it gets to him.  Would like to order some of these.  Please reply to Dave Ely at email address illaheeshores at comcast.net.  

Thanks,  Dave
