Am I the only one who still likes radios with tubes and dial strings? And
rectifiers that glow blue? And big ol' transformers that keep your coffee
warm?

I just finished looking at the Tentec Orion, and I thought it was
ugly. I did not care for the Icom computer screen radios, or the
Kenwood orange LCD screen radios either. I want real knobs to turn,
real buttons to push, and a real analog meter to look at.
I sit in front of a computer all day at work. I don't want to look
at another computer screen when I get home and turn on my ham radio.
Am I the only one that thinks a radio should look like a radio, and
not an over sized Palm Pilot with a mic jack and a coax connector?
