Thank you DonCoat! I had skipped over to the UniHD board this morning and noticed the thread that Cordrone posted in with this very information.

This is such a brilliant idea. If there is a place to contact them, I'm going to contact them and let them know I appreciate them advertising during our show and that I'm interested in their products.

Some of them I can't quite afford yet

but I will one of these days!

Good to see you around the board, I was just thinking this morning that I'd not seen much of you lately and here you are! Hope all is well with you and that you're still keeping those worn but loved browncoats squared away for the new folks.

Hi,

Thanks,

We can't get HD were we live, but if you know how to contact those people, I would look right now, but I'm about to prepare for a move.

I'll gladly email every and all of them, telling them I'm willing to support them, even though I haven't seen the show in HD because we can't get it.

Thanks

You know, I actually hadn't thought about sending a direct "thank you" to the sponsors. I figured that what would really matter to them was the bottom line, which we could only affect by buying their products.

But I do like the idea. I would suggest contacting the sponsors through their web sites. I've listed several of them (those that appeared in the ads) and several others are pretty obvious (like Toshiba and Acura).

Most web sites have a link for email or feedback. Whether that will get the message to the right people, I can't say. Of course, in most cases you could also get a surface mail address from the web site.

Erico,

Your page lists things that we're encouraging folks to do with our Operation Signal Boost campaign.
May I please use your page as a link in my posts re: OSB and also encourage folks to listen to the podcasts to receive ideas on how to further our chances for a sequel?

I'd be much obliged.
