I am getting a Hammarlund HQ-145 and would like to get some of the
groups opinions on the radio, compared to the competition at the time.
I am looking forward to getting the radio, as a kid in jr. high, my
dream was always an HQ-180!
Thanks in advance

Sorry but I thought it was a mediocre radio. When you open it up you
as yourself "What did they do with the other half of the radio"? You
would be much better off with one of their older pre miniature tube
radios such as the HQ0150,140 or 120. Of the more modern radios the
HQ-110 was not too bad though.
