I have revived two (and a half) BC-669s- one a "B"
model, 

which I have here,

and one a "BM" model, which Ronnie Hull has.

  While it's true they don't have the capability
of, say, a TCS, 

I respectfully submit that is an unfair
comparison.  The 669's roots 

are in the 2-4MC Marine Band.  It was never
designed for

nor intended to be a "general coverage" radio.
For 160 and 80 mtrs, 

I think it a very fine rig and I don't want to
part with my "B" model. 

 I have a green "D" model with the matching green
supply

which is in the "revival queue."
