Default A historical regret.

It is my regret that I have very little in the way of valve (tube for the
Yanks)
equipment, despite having had the seeds of interest sown 54 years ago at age
11.

It saddens me when I think of the valved RXs that I once had and then let
go, R210, R1475, HRO,
R1155, RA17 and for TX, KW Vanguard, FT101E (twice), Codar AT5, Sommerkamp
747.

Still, tomorrow I hope to go a little way to correcting the bias by picking
up an FT200
and an Eddystone 640!

I do havve sitting on the shelf a Trio 830s, though, although hidden behind
thepile of QRP rigs.
