Very good image Timothy. I am pleased to see us getting some more new members who are interested in AP. Sorry I missed you on Saturday. I was running remotely since I had just driven up there on Friday evening to make some adjustments.

W have a forum on the web site where you can get with the other AP guys.

Beautiful Image, Timothy. Well done in every aspect. I was impressed with the clear detail you got out of that relatively small chip. I salute you!
