So, it appears to be even worse than I feared.  I have received private emails from several hams who have had their Mobo's in Larry's hands for over a year.  The suggestion that a friendly nearby ham might help him out by sending back the materials belonging to each of us is a good  one.  The problem may well be that sorting whose is whose may be very difficult unless the boxes are labelled, as opposed to all over the bench.  To most hams, one Mobo and peripherals would look like another.

Last year, I sent Larry an unbuilt complete Cube transceiver from Midnight Science with options as a gift in appreciation for his help with past and current projects.  It appears that he will not get to build this project in his present state.  Perhaps someone would buy it to defray any costs of returning the various projects he can't finish.  

Larry is a great guy, and it is really sad to think he is so disabled.  He has a great mind, and he has always been generous with his time.  Very sad.

I spoke to Larry about 3 weeks ago, and he literally just came out of the hospital after surgery don't think he is doing very well
 
Reason I called w as that he has a couple oft things as well
We should fine an easy solution to help him send our things back because I'm not sure he is capable
Maybe a local ham to help him sort and send?
Comments?
He has helped many hams

Dear Preston,
 
Last year, I sent Larry an unbuilt complete Cube transceiver from Midnight Science with options as a gift in appreciation for his help with past and current projects.  It appears that he will not get to build this project in his present state.  Perhaps someone would buy it to defray any costs of returning the various projects he can't finish.  


I just signed in to this group as I considered to build a Mobo 4.3 for the SR63ng which I finished a few days ago. I already considered the Cube as an alternative. 

I would be willing to buy this unfinished Cube you mentioned to support the project. The only disadvantage is that I live in Germany which makes it a bit more complicated (customs) and expensive to send the materials. However, I will visit the US in Feb/March (Boston) and could pick up the Cube during my stay. 

You can contact me by regular email to discuss the details. 

Sincerely

Karl-Heinz
