[Icom] IC751A Logic Unit

Hi, 
What is the definition of being obsolete? I still use lots of
tube gears from the '40s and on. Not only in ham radio, home stereo,
my son's guitar amps, some of test instruments. As long as
it serves my purpose, age does not matter. As is, we throw away things
too much. Lots of things are not renewable. To me, bells and whistles,
convenience is not much of an issue, fun is.
73,
Tony, VE6CGX
