You purchased yours while they were still being made; now that they
are discontinued the prices are moving up. Saw one recently ~$1200
and I expect to see them go higher than that.


I'm hoping to spot one in the thrift store for $20.


You should look for one of those big 18 tube boat anchor radios to keep
warm with this winter. Heating oil looks to be pricey this year.
