I have an old Allied catalog here with advertisements of Radios and
pictures of different Radios and I have three of those reprint Sears and
Roebuck catalogs here which have advertisements of different kinds of
Radios Sears and Roebuck used to sell many,many years ago.Somewhere in
my dinasaur radio collection,I have a Longwave radio (I think it is a
Longwave radio) that I bought at a Goodwill thrift store for about two
dollars.When I bought it,I could see there are dirt dobbers nest in the
radio,they are still inside of the radio too.What would a Longwave
(Longwave only,radio) radio be usefull for nowdays?

That's pretty much what I did. I sold him some crystals for use in old
transmitters up on ePay. When I discovered who it was I said to heck with
the $20 or so and simply asked for a signed photo. He sent the CD as well.
I did have a good conversation with him on the phone one evening a few years
ago when he called me up.

He bought one of my SX-28s I restored a few years ago. He is a very nice
guy. He has some young guy that drives around the country picking up radios
and stuff for him. I thought? What a great job. :)

Hey, I don't tell people what I paid for my Davco DR-30!

Now there is a radio that is not only rare, but good looking and a great
performer.
Sold mine many years ago and regretted it ever since.

Hi Dave,
It is one of my favorites. I have the majority of the board meeting minutes-
a DT-40 (matching TX) almost made it to production before the company
dissolved. That would have been a gem.
