[Hackrf-dev] Fwd: Group Buy? /Sick of Beige

[Tim Crisall]

sorry all - I sent this email back direct and not to the group - then
attached the pictures and blew out on the message size - one day I'll get
caught up to the 1990's and figure out email...

Let me summarize by saying that the case I had made was a success and it
did work fine with the #4 x 40 hardware.

hopefully these links to photo's work:
