Actually I have the Blap -O-Matic 88 and find it to be an excellent
reciever. The natural gas operated display is nice and bright and the
hamster driver mechanical filters have a great shape factor depending on
what type of skirt I put on the hamster. I believe the 99 uses geribles
rather than hamsters thus having the longer tail that pulls in that extra
faint signal.

Don't you wish you had a dollar for every time you read a stupid reply to
a
poster's question, like the following typical example?


ORIGINAL POSTER asks something like this:

I am thinking about getting a Blap-O-Matic 99 tabletop receiver. How well
does
this radio perform? Has anyone had any problems with it? Please share your
hands-on experience with your Blap-O-Matic 99. Thanks.



SOME IDIOT posts the following reply:

I don't know anything about the Blap-O-Matic 99, but I do have a Radio
Snatch
XYZ-222, which seems to do a great job for a portable. It eats batteries,
though. I really like the little red signal strength LED.



AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH !!!!!
