Lord only know how BAD we need an AA for Boat Anchors!
I started with an HT-32/SX-101 - AGAIN.
Within months an R-390A followed me home. Then the first BC-610.
Then within two years ANOTHER BC-610, and then a Northern Radio version
Hammarlund SP-600.
There is just NO stopping it!
Keep going Frank! Get licensed and grow the "herd".
