===========
The HRO receivers had that fantastic dial with the planetary vernier gizmo
inside and the numbers peeking through the holes -- to me, that was the most
romantic piece of gadgetry in the history of ham radio. A modern version
with a virtual picture of that dial on a screen would be a major marketing
coup.
