I also like my real analog meter better than a digital
simulation.

My Southgate Type 7 has *two* real analog meters. Nice
easy-to-read round 3-1/2 inch ones.

Also Made In USA.

Do you refer to it as your (get ready for it) two meter rig?

Nope. That's a Heath HW-2036. Only has one meter - analog.

I'm getting confoozed! Your two meter rig is a one meter rig?

I remember the '2036 and used to own one. I spent a lot of time
fiddling with those VCO coils in the thing. It belongs to a Lebanese
ham in Sierra Leone now. He's probably cursing me every time he has to
fiddle with those coils.

But my shack clock is digital. It's a Tymeter 24-hour one, made from
the parts of three junkers more than 15 years ago.

Those things are developing some nostalgia value these days.
