![]() From: "lsmyer" Newsgroups: rec.radio.shortwave Date: Sun, 3 Apr 2005 14:17:43 -0400 Subject: Art Bell's newest toy Last night, Art Bell opened his program talking about the brand new radio he just got from Yaesu. He said that this particular unit happens to be the very first one in the US, and maybe even the world. From what I can remember, it had a price tag of $11,000 and weighed about 80 pounds. He said that there would be a link to a picture on his website. I fell asleep before I learned anything more about it. But I do remember hearing that he wants to use this next week as playtime, and we'll get a full report next weekend. If anyone is interested, here's a link to the site. Just click where it says "Photo from 4/2/05" which is directly under the words "Art's Webcam." http://www.coasttocoastam.com/shows/.../02.html#recap I have a feeling that some lucky hams will be receiving Mr Bell just a little better than normal this next week thanks to his brand new Yaesu transceiver. The man does have nice toys! Greg |
