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.

I didn't quite find my '67 EAC in a dumpster, but I did find a 'spare',  
which turned out to be a R1981 (or is that a R1891), I can never  
remember..........
It was free.............
