In my teens, freshly licensed, I had a Heath DX20 and a Hallicrafters  
S38D. The highlight of my first few months was working a guy 2000  
miles away on a 60-W-lamp dummy load and 6' of leaky RG58. I later  
upgraded to a Heath HW-16 and had a blast.

My neighbor (who I met because he copied my callsign off his TV  
screen) had a state-of-the-art 1972-era station. What I wouldn't give  
to travel back in time and give him a demo of the K-line :)

73,
