[Duo2400] Duo 270c: 8 chime grief

[Alex Santos 100MB Neostrada Mail]

Hi, don't throw it out.

Maybe sell it on ebay if anything.

I don't have a duo but am looking for one. But I am not technician, if 
I were I would probably buy it off you.

Anyway let me know what you have.

You can mail me off list if you wish.

Sincerely
Alex
