[AMRadio] VHF-152

[Todd Bigelow - PS]

I've had a couple of them Dennis, was never impressed with the performance. It
was probably great for the day, but I'm afraid many of us have been spoiled by
the improvements made since then. I'm not at all fond of the newer technology,
but it's difficult to cope with something that appears nearly deaf after hearing
signals so clearly on something newer. It just strikes me that the design and
layout leaves a lot of ways for signal loss.
