>> For whatever it may be worth, I see on EBAY more BC-348 receivers than ever before. I assume its a sign of the times. Condition ranges from fair to ratty. Prices would be OK if one knew the actual condition, e.g.: recap or not, etc.. The J, N, and Q models seem to bear up better that the others and tubes for them are a bit easier to find. I see but one DM-28 dynamotor listed. If I'd only known back in 1959!! I still use two '348s here and both exhibit 1uv sensitivity on the lower bands. I have little success in using them on the LF bands, however. QRM crud devastating. Anyway... just a thought. Did any one in this area go to Howard County (MD) fest yesterday?
