Kind of like spending $1,000 for a Sony 6800 orange dial or $3,000 for a Sony CRF320. OTOH, if two collectors want an item that does make a market. I've sold several of those over the years with the same crystals, NB and calibrator and have never received anywhere near that much for one. One thing to remember about them though, even though they are a decent enough receiver, they were not referred to as the "Spur 4" without good reason. dxAce Michigan USA Like a lot of other radios it is an average receiver that will do reasonably well. This auction may be an example of how SWL's who use receivers are motiviated differently than those who collect them. http://www.iserv.net/~n8kdv/dxpage.htm |
