[Hallicrafters] BC-610 Checks Into Net Today

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

Hmmm. Why does the book say 390 pounds? Perhaps some additional pieces not in
that calculation? Power supply, speech unit etc.

I'd like to make ONE "tiny" correction folks.  It weighs 640 pounds!  I keep
it on one of those "moving men" platforms with casters.  That's the only way
I can move "Her" around!

Thanks for the comment Duane!
