I can hardly believe the effort you go to in restoring radios. Nice work,
OM. I would suggest that you break up the 4.htm page into separate pages.
The images are great but they take a long time to download. A little cutting
and pasting on the HTML would really enhance the site. Check the image sizes
on a couple of them, too. The BC-348 should be sized 540x258 for example.
You have it squished. I would recommend PaintShop Pro for image work. You
can resize and also save images in reduced quality to cut down download
time, and it's cheap. You can degrade a JPG about 10% and not see any
difference on-screen, but the file size is reduced quite a bit.

I'm still gasping at the interior shot of an SX-28. Amazing.

The Liberals are indeed good at recycling!


Yea, like the words fabricating and lying.... over and over and over
again. It boggles... you know

The truth usually blows the retards away!


True!

What gets me is that they have to go back 30 years to find anything Kerry's
proud of.

Thanks guys. It seems I spend more time fixing radios than listening now
days. Your right Paul. I need to revamp my sight. It just takes so much
time. I will this summer. I think?

Great work Brian. Are you still available for SX-28 restorations? Mine's
not too bad but the AVC doesn't work (see link below).

I tell you where I was .. voting for Nixon the crook instead of
McGovern the coward. I was not alone.

Remember an organization called "Democrats for Nixon"? Anyone
remember their TV spots?

One thing about McGovern, though. He didn't throw his medals back.

This year's kommie-krat kandidate, Komrade Kerry, can't seem to decide
whether he threw his medals or not. Looks like ABC TV tried to
refresh his memory.

In a videotape from 1971, obtained exclusively by ABCNEWS, Vietnam
veteran John Kerry said he gave back his medals in order to "wake the
country."

Videotape Contradicts John Kerry’s Own Statements Over Vietnam
Medals
By Brian Ross and Chris Vlasto
ABCNEWS.com
April 26— Contradicting his statements as a candidate for
president, Sen. John Kerry claimed in a 1971 television interview that
he threw away as many as nine of his combat medals to protest the war
in Vietnam.

"I gave back, I can't remember, six, seven, eight, nine medals," Kerry
said in an interview on a Washington, D.C., news program on WRC-TV
called Viewpoints on Nov. 6, 1971, according to a tape obtained by
ABCNEWS.
Throughout his presidential campaign, Kerry has denied that he threw
away any of his medals during an anti-war protest in April 1971.

Calling it a "phony controversy" instigated by the Republican party,
Kerry said on Good Morning America today that he has always accurately
said what took place. "I threw my ribbons. I didn't have my medals. It
is very simple."

He also said he — and the military — didn't make a
distinction between medals and ribbons. "We threw away the symbols of
what our country gave us for what we had gone through," he said.

And in an interview with ABCNEWS' Peter Jennings last December, he
said it was a "myth."

But Kerry told a much different story on Viewpoints. Asked about the
anti-war veterans who threw their medals away, Kerry said "they
decided to give them back to their country."

Kerry was asked if he gave back the Bronze Star, Silver Star and three
Purple Hearts he was awarded for combat duty as a Navy lieutenant in
Vietnam. "Well, and above that, [i] gave back the others," he said.

The statement directly contradicts Kerry's most recent claims on the
disputed subject to the Los Angeles Times last Friday. "I never ever
implied that I did it, " Kerry told the newspaper, responding to the
question of whether he threw away his medals in protest.

"I'm proud of my medals. I always was proud of them," he told Jennings
in December, adding that he had only thrown away his "ribbons" and the
medals of two other veterans who could not attend the protest.

Flip Flop?

The disputed incident happened 33 years ago this past weekend, on
April 23, 1971, when Kerry led the group Vietnam Veterans Against the
War in a protest against the war they fought.

Many veterans were seen throwing their medals and ribbons over the
fence in front of the U.S. Capitol. The Boston Globe and other
newspapers reported that Kerry was among these veterans.

"In a real sense, this administration forced us to return our medals
because beyond the perversion of the war, these leaders themselves
denied us the integrity those symbols supposedly gave our lives,"
Kerry said the following day.

But in 1984, when he first ran for the U.S. Senate, Kerry revealed he
still had his medals. According to a Boston Globe report on April 15,
1984, union officials had expressed uneasiness with Kerry's candidacy
because he had thrown his medals away. Kerry acknowledged the medals
he threw away were, in fact, another soldier's medals. He reportedly
invited a union official home to personally inspect his Silver Star,
Bronze Star and three Purple Hearts, awarded for his combat duty as a
Navy lieutenant.

In the 1971 Viewpoints interview, he made no mention of the ribbons or
the medals belonging to another veteran.

And in 1988, Kerry again clarified his statement by saying he threw
out ribbons he had been awarded for three combat wounds, but not his
medals. "I was proud of my personal service and remain so," he told
the National Journal.

Eight years later in 1996, Kerry said while he did throw out his
ribbons, he didn't throw out his own medals because he "didn't have
time to go home [to New York] and get them," he told The Boston Globe.

Kerry's campaign Web site says he "is proud of the work he did to end
the war. The Nixon Administration made John Kerry one of its targets
and Republicans have been smearing him ever since. John Kerry threw
his ribbons and the medals of two veterans who could not attend the
event, and said, 'I am not doing this for any violent reasons, but for
peace and justice, and to try to make this country wake up once and
for all.'"

Back in '72, I was a non-voting (not yet old enough) Democrat.. but even I
would have voted for anyone BUT McGovern for one reason and one reason
alone.. he had no guts. And I don't mean Vietnam, either. I'm talking about
dumping Eagleton just because he had been under a shrink's care many years
earlier. And I think that's probably one of the bigger reasons that he
lost. If he had had the guts to keep his original running mate, rather than
to let the opposition make up his mind for him, he may have had a better
chance. I think it's called "integrity"..

Watching the beginnig of the *Big Red Machine* lose to those Oakland A's in
seven games.

Broke my heart. :-(

Yeah, but he just happened to be hauling his ribbons around with him all
the time.... right...

Kerry is a fabricator and a liar...



Kerry's campaign Web site says he "is proud of the work he did to end
the war. The Nixon Administration made John Kerry one of its targets
and Republicans have been smearing him ever since. John Kerry threw
his ribbons and the medals of two veterans who could not attend the
