If you appreciate electronic construction and layout,
my vote goes to any of the Hammarlund radios.
They were built "to last forever"....
Dials and controls .....s m o o t h....
If you pull the case, they're beautiful.
No construction shortcuts.

If you've ever marveled at the construiction
of the older Tektronix Oscilloscopes,
you know what I'm talking about.

My Tektronics 7904 keeps the heaviest of doors open and the plugin
modules work well on the windows.

Kidding aside, they're very nicely made pieces of equipment. I hope
mine lasts forever.

They are no doubt my favorites. My first Hammarlund was the 129X with the
additional Q-Multiplier. Then the 140X and lastly the 180. They are built like
tanks and I can hear anything on the 129X and the 180 that anyone else can hear
on their rice burners. ;-)
