[Milsurplus] High priced BC-348P

[C.Whitaker]

That price is only for someone who gathered
a lot of money after they left the Air Force.
I used those things, built a couple of AC power
supplies, and did some ham radio and short
wave broadcast.  A long time ago, but I don't
want to have a souvineer (Denkmal) at
that price.
