We took inventory and scheduled a catch up production run for all subscribers that will begin Tuesday. The plan is to catch everyone up thru TP-008, including all of you new subscribers, before we move ahead on the production of TP-009 and TP-010.
To give you an idea of what is involved, we scheduled about 100 hours for this duplicating run. Yup, that's about 2-1/2 weeks of duping to catch up all the new folks and pick up a few stragglers that got caught between past catchup runs. That's getting pretty close to one of our regular duping runs which runs about 150 hours these days. So it's not that we are ignoring you, it's just that we are pedaling as fast as we can.
With all this production, as you can imagine we are well past the halfway point of available serial numbers. We blocked out up to SN100 for charter members, and charter member number 88 just signed up today (Thanks Steve!). So if you want to reserve a serial number below 100 the time to take out your charter subscription for the current series one, the time to act is soon. That's not to say that you won't be able to get a set of all ten tapes. It's just that once SN89-100 are gone there can be no guarantee that all tapes you receive would have the same serial number.
