I apologize to all for my insensitive posting about recycling two 3m dishes for scrap. Some people in the hobby value these highly.. As did I. I let my enthusiasm for cleaning up my yard of junk (for my wife's future) overshadow my (and others) passion for RF Gain.

As the former owner of a 1984 Plymouth Horizon I get a kick out of this silly song about a beloved hatchback that got junked:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlXhHQQFCfk
The lyrics in relevant part: "The steel will get recycled and they'll build another car Bigger, faster, stronger, an automotive star"
I am trying to write a song about the fate of the aluminum from Bob's 3m dishes, but I can't find anything that rhymes with "Lindenblads"
