Should I add ADT to Salvage Radiation at age 76?

Yes, you remembered well Jeff : ).
And yes, my husband will need ADT at least for 6 mos (we were told), regardless of how low PSA is. Even if we decided to have adjuvant immediately post op with uPSA undetectable, my husband was advised to have ADT since he is a high risk patient.

@surftohealth88 I think those ASCO recommendations about using PSA at the start of salvage radiation as the only factor to determine whether ADT is needed or not need to be further annotated. There are lots of patients like your husband that have adverse factors that justify the use of ADT regardless of what their PSA is at the start of salvage radiation.
