I'm speechless.

I'm afraid to leave my house for fear that I'll be kidnapped,
held against my will in a cheap hotel and deprived of sleep
until I've
been
'programmed' to appreciate the merits of the 800!

Any day now I just know that someone's going to argue that the
Grundig
Mini World 100 PE (perhaps suitably modified) is superior
overall
to
the AOR 7030+. It's just a matter of time.

It will probably happen. Amazing things occur here every day.

Hold on, lemme go get my 100PE that's upstairs....

::tries radio::

Wow!! Did you know you could get Rush on shortwave??
Oh, wait, that's AM BCB.... Nevermind.

I guess that the 100PE isn't as good as a 7030+. I'll report
for deprogramming tomorrow.

But can it possibly be modified to work as well?

You could duct-tape it to the side of a Drake. On second thought, don't
use duct-tape. Just position it near the Drake. Then, just use the
Drake and imagine you are using the 100PE. You should also probably
make sure there are no batteries in the 100 PE -- One can't be too
careful with these things...


I'm really not sure just how big that 100PE is, but maybe I could pull
the cabinet on one of the Drakes and just set the darn thing inside?

I'm just looking for a way to improve my reception.

Improved reception through osmosis!

You'll make billion$!!


Yeah, guess that might have been a possibility, but now the R8B is discontinued.

I suppose I could still set up shop to do modifications though.

I will install your 100PE into your Drake R8 series receiver for $59.95 +
shipping. Installation of the 100PE into other receivers upon request, please
call for availability.

I may need some help due to the upcoming demand, are you willing to relocate JD?
