Just curious to hear about shortwave receivers that people have owned that
are their longest-operating receivers. How long did they last, and are you
still using them? Did they require major overhaul at any point during their
long lives?

My NC-125 was built in the late fifties. I bought it used in the mid
seventies, so I've had it for more than thirty years. I partially
recapped it, re-tubed and re-alined it last year. It still works rather
nicely, thanks.


I have one of those I'm saving for after the Iranian EMP bomb.
