I thought about the ebay thing but the cost to ship would probably
discourage anyone. It weighs around 40 lbs!

Don't underestimate what people are willing to pay for shipping if they
really want the radio. I've' paid quite a lot for shipping to get some
of my boatanchors.

Thanks Joe. Only amateur bands? That kinda sucks. Good thing I
have
others. I doubt I'll restore it. I have literally over 100 odd
shortwave
radios and after I buy them and play with them for a while they just sit
and
collect dust. I call them my "retirement fund" I'll probably put most
of
them up on ebay in 10 years or so and be accused of being a "capitalist
pig"
LOL

Put the '170' back on Ebay and advertise it for Ham's. Then you can buy
another radio, like you need more! :-)
