Howdy Eugene -

Yes, you were conspicuous by your absence. There was a nice CR-91A there
that would've gone nicely with the CR-88 you picked up there a few years
back.

The transmitter is a Hallicrafters HT-20, fairly scarce rig. It's claim to
fame is being used on the first(?) Clipperton DXpedition. Basically a
dressed up Viking I.

The table of exotic goodies belonged to my pal John/W3JN. He always has
interesting items as he still works in the field, so to speak. The CR-91A
and a pair of HRO-500s were in the back of his suburban, and my trashy
stuff was just to the right in that photo. Sold a CV-62/U RTTY converter
for $25!
