I don't have a receipt from the Dayton fest in 1994, but I have a mint
looking 67 EAC bought for $365. It came with the Utah plate, and top/bottom
covers too. I don't think the radio ever saw service and was probably on a
shelf the whole time.

Somebody on this list found one in a dumpster. I can't remember who that was
or if he is still around. Quite a few guys have had one given to them.
