Oh sure, I know, that's pretty much what I've been doing.  I wanted 
the DX-100 and HQ-180A because they are close to my first ham station 
in 1964 (that one was a DX-100 and what I believe was a Hammarlund 
SP-400 that my dad gutted and rebuilt in his own image).  And my 
HQ-129X is there because it was built in 1947, the year of my birth 
(still kind of looking for a transmitter from that year, maybe a 
Harvey Wells or Collins).

I've updated my page on qrz.com with some photos if you're interested 
in seeing what I've managed to cobble together so far.
