Yes, let us hope that they will be valuable in future years, as the market
on ebay and elsewhere for boatanchors is very soft now. Hopefully there
will still be analog stations to tune, and low enough levels of electrical
interference
to hear them.

I used to have an NC-183, and then decided that I shall have no boatanchor
larger
than a microwave oven. That maxim has certainly limited the size, but not
the quantity, of my boatanchors awaiting restoration!
