[Hallicrafters] No more BA collecting in Japan?

[John Page]

Does this mean that eBay will now be flooded with all the old Collins gear 
that the JA's have been buying up for years. That could reaaly put a dent in 
the price of your gold dust twins that you have been saving for your funeral 
expenses. John
