Hi Bernie and Gang,    Dunno who owns that tron from KS on eBay.
It definitely has  a CMC-10 ,  which explains the pitch/stability
issues.


RE: the earlier post about the "earliest" M400 for sale (#170),
Pierre Veilleux sold #123 to Jim Finnegan in VA's Tidewater area
some years ago. The oldest M400 I personally have heard of is #104.


And JB informed me that Streetly has prototype M400 in their possession.
...Doesn't get much earlier than that.  


Cheers, -- Jerry K.  (M400/203 the "Ugh-ly" Tron at the M-Ranch for full re-do)
