I have to chuckle whenever one of those feeding frenzies starts when a
L@@K, R@RE, vacuum tube receiver pops up on EBay. It sold for $595.00
when new in the mid 50's. Granted, not many were built, but it is an
average receiver by todays standards. There are a lot of people out
there with more money than brains.

If radio buyers back in the mid 50s thought the SX-88 was worth $600.00,
Hallicrafters would have been making them by the thousands.
