Group,
Over the years, I've heard of several cases where people bought CU-32's and
upon arrival found parts of the antenna relay assembly broken (vacuum switch
and/or ceramic parts). Of course that doesn't say much good about how well the
thing would have survived a flak near miss but that's another story. I
thought I was out of the units and parts but Saturday found another box in my seldom
visited storage building with two complete in it. And of course, the vacuum
switch in the transmitter (same flak comment applies) I still have plenty of.
