I mean it. My S-118 Mk II is lonely.

Ok Steve. How much work do you wan't to do and how much do you wan't to
spend? Be careful what you wish for. The 28 is one radio that will make you
feel like you've done some work. Just ask Phil Nelson. Right Phil? The A
versions a little easier. I like alining the 28s better than the 28A because
those iron core trans/coils in the RF deck of the 28As can get stuck or be
loose. You can chip em easy too if your not careful. I just like the brass
screw on the older ones better. They may be the reason the 28 is a little
better performer than the 28A too? One thing nice about the 28/28A is its a
radio you will listen too. Its fun to use so the work is worth it.
