Evidently DRAKE thought they needed upgrading! ;-) Not upgrades really, more like simple enhancements. They all hear equally well. Get back to me when you have more than a hundred or so thrown out QSL's. Sorry again. Dear "dxAce," If only I'd known then what I know now --- one of the saddest phrases in the English language. At the very least I could have donated the QSLs and the memorabilia to The Committee to Preserve Radio Verifications, though I do not believe any such repository existed at that time. Since that time, though I have continued to listen to shortwave radio, it is more as a program listener than as an active DXer. While I do search for exotic signals on occasion, I never ask for QSLs any more, even when I write to a station. I guess the "desire" was tossed away, along with my QSLs, by my ex-wife (though, of course, I should not and do not place all the blame on her). Back to the ICOM - do you think truly that ANY communications receiver can really be worth $13,500.00? No. |
