Wow...that's a lot of money for an old boatanchor!!

It's a nice radio. You should learn to maintain them yourself though.
You'll save a lot of money.

It is a rather difficult to use and maintain receiver that is really

of that size and weight seems a little silly today. But to each his

It's the best bang for the buck out there. Incredibly sensitive,
especially competent in difficult RF environments (e.g. a big city).
