I paid $200 for a Ranger 1 around 9 or 10 years ago and one is enough.
I don't think they're very good rigs (I'm trying to exercise
restraint).  Anyone new to vintage radio would do well to avoid them
and go with something like a Viking 1 for AM or CW in my opinion.  CW
operators have CW only rigs as options as well, and they are simpler,
and easier to work on.  The Ranger is a beguiling rig, all cute and
pretty.  Run away!
