[Lowfer] EAR, MLS, TH

[Michael Sapp]

John: Thank you for your insights on TH et al. Yes I recall the late 1980s 
and a few local lowfers around Pittsburgh were QYV (sk) and GIR, A few 
others I dont seem to recall. At the time my local radio club had a Kenwood 
TS-440 and TS-430,  I think the TS-430 had better LF sensitivity. It had a 
discrete component double balanced mixer and no preamp. I kind of miss that 
radio although I recall it had some known maintenance issues although not 
overwhelming....
