Not a true conch but was navy brat moved here when I was 7 and am now 37--- there's a ton of history on this little 3 by 5 island!! Saving up for a garret at but all my finds so far have been with a good ole ace 150 believe it or not but I def believe its not so much what machine you use but how well the user knows their particular machines language!! That being said however I can't wait to learn to speak A.T. !! Lol
