I suppose. I go for performance these days, the ionosphere being what it
is. I have left a trail of good feeling radios too heavy or too bulky to
pack. If I was buying a radio for cool knobs I'd probably go for a 51s-1.
Nobody around here has more experience on big knob Collins **** than I
do. I got a lot of that out of my system as a radio teen.

I sure as hell am not going to spend $1,900 on a radio without a USB or a
232 port.
