I didn't start out to collect BC-348s at all. I think they tend to flock together. I have a BC-224-C. Two or three of the no-LF band models, which I prefer. An R-849 with the squelch box mounted on top. A 348 with a factory AC installed, but no indication on the tag who did the work. A completely repaneled one for rack mount, an oddity. -Hue Miller
