Another good episode Buzz Icon_thumbup

The owner of Quality Dial belts bought the business from Al Adams when he retired. They are polyurethane belts that are electronically welded so I think the belt will last just fine. I'm not affiliated with them but am glad someone took over the business.

Great finish Buzz! That's a pretty unique radio with a beautiful dial.

I think I saw Bigfoot in the snack food section at Walmart a week or two ago Icon_e_wink
