[ARC5] Survey Question

[Bob via ARC5]

I have, over the years collected and preserved in excess of 50 command set transmitters and receivers.  Many of them in original condition, a number of them modified by earnest hams, and some that have just seen the ravages of time.  One of these days I'll have my grandson tally up the units by model number and condition.  I've given a few of them away over the years and sold a few too, but the romantic attachment to the rascals keeps me collecting them when the price is within reason.  


Bob, KE6f

station....not by me!
