Welcome to the board Randy. Are you diving lakes in Alberta or traveling to places down South?
Hope to see you around.

Yarrrr, ahoy matey! Welcome aboard! So what kinda gear are ya wantin': the usual USD and Voit, or something a little more challenging to acquire? Find a copy of "Basic Scuba" by Fred M. Roberts: SECOND EDITION!!!!! if you're serious about getting into vintage diving. The second edition has schematics of nearly every reg up until 1962, which you can help you figure out newer gear too. Try Graig's List and ALWAYS ask at garage sales if they have any dive gear, ya never know, because once in a blue moon you'll hear something like, "Yeah, I do, but I don't think you'd want it, it's really old... and dangerous!" Try to control yourself, and say, "Gosh, can I see it?" all the while you're thinking, "YEEEHAW!" Jaybird
