What would really be nice would be able to order any of the parts listed in 
the catalog.
That is,  IF we could pay the 1921 prices.
If we had to pay 2015 prices the UV-204 listed on page 24 for $110 would now 
cost $1331.00!

Hi  Richard,
I have the November 1936  issue and March 1937.
Scratchi's  column is in both of those.
