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".
