[Boatanchors] HT-20 and Clipperton (heavy iron)

[Les Zwiebel WB6ORZ]

    My most recent acquisitions: RCA CR-88 and Central Electronics 600L. With them I didn't anticipate it, but I received a free strained and swollen Achilles tendon. And that was with the help of another guy assisting!
    Feeling better 6 weeks later.
    Each piece weighs at least 100 pounds.
    Why don't I just take up stamp collecting?

  I was glad to see the Hallicrafters HT-9 mentioned as a heavy load. I agree! It's like wrestling a coffin with no handles that contains a 200-pound man.

  And I'd like to nominate another back-breaker: The Central Electronics 600L amp. For its relatively compact size, it is painfully hefty. It's another one that I let go because I thought it was too heavy to deal with, only to now wish I had it back. Nice amp.
