> Whenever we lament the prices in our 40 to 60-year old surplus catalogs and ads, run those prices
you see against the government's inflation calculator at http://www.bls.gov/cpi/home.htm .  Many
things are cheaper than they've ever been, when you can find them for sale.

That's why i really wonder at the prices asked for some ham-useless gear in the old
catalogs and ads, the ARR-2s, BC-645's, RAY, oddball stuff like that with really
limited conversion outcomes - scale the prices up and you see even those oddballs
were in no way giveaways. -Hue Miller
