I do.  It was a cheap way to get a receiver at the time [very young 
teenagerhood] down at Surplus Sams on Pico Blvd in LAX.  I had one, 
thought myself fortunate when I later inherited an SA-28 to replace it. 
  There's no comparison to receivers of today of course, and I do not 
want to go back to the "good old days."  I like my Elecraft radios more 
than I can tell you.  I thoroughly enjoyed those teenage days, but 
technology has moved on and I'm not a teen anymore.  The bands aren't 
what they were then either.
