[Premium-Rx] The Watergate Rig

[Robert Nickels]

While the WJ RS-111 receiver doesn't rise to the "premium" level, I know 
Terry O'Laughlin is a member of this list, and wanted to congratulate 
him - and make others aware of -  his great article on "The Watergate 
Rig - The Most Infamous Spy Radio" - in the June 2008 issue of Popular 
Communications magazine!

It's a great history, not only of the receiver and the company who made 
it, but also of the politics of the time and its role in the unraveling 
of a Presidency.  I wasn't aware of any of this until I bought my 
RS-111-1B-17D at the Grayslake Hamfest a number of years ago, and Terry 
saw it and mentioned the Watergate connection.  Like Terry points out, 
it's not often that a communications receiver becomes front-page news!

Nice job Terry!
