Default Need good radio: A 2m ht with extended receive.

I have a few old off the wall brand name,multi band radios here that I
bought from the Goodwill store years and years ago.I can pick up Hawkins
Field.(Hawkins Field is about three miles from me,I caught a flight from
there to Fort Jackson,South Carolina in November 1962) The Jackson Evers
International Airport (formerly Jackson International Airport,it got
renamed a couple of years ago) is about fifteen miles East of me and the
Mississippi Air National Guard is in Flowood,about nine miles East of
me.I can't pick them up unless I put up a good antenna.Listening to
Airport chatter doesn't interest me anyway. www.google.com
Airports in Jackson Mississippi

First week of January 1964,I caught a flight on a Misissippi Air
National Guard piston engine propellar Airplane to the Oakland Army
Terminal in Oakland,California.I like Airplanes and Helicopters,but I
dont like to fly.y'all can have it!
