OK last one, since I know the boys here are trading and don't
want to keep cluttering the board. Here's the E-trade Treas. order
screen. The farther out in maturity you go, the better your Yield
to Maturity. You decide. Just don't sell before expiry. Easy. You
hit buy, enter the # amount you want to purchase and done. Maybe
you need a new broker!

Brophy, very helpful. Thanks! I clearly need to use another
brokerage account to do the research and then buy them through
IBKR. IBKR's platform is not nearly this user friendly...not even
close.
Or just buy them through another brokerage. Etrade, TD
Ameritrade, and Fidelity all are user-friendly. Open a small amount
first and compare. Have a good wknd!
