In 1969 my first rig (separate rx/tx) and antenna cost 140 pounds which
nowadays is about 210 dollars!

When I got my ticket in 1962, I would never have believed that am amp could
cost $12,000 or more, that one could spend $10,000 for a transceiver, or
over $12,000 for an antenna including purchase price and labor. But ham
gear is no different than anything else really. Several years ago, I bought
a new pickup truck with all of the available options, including 4WD and a
diesel engine, and that it would cost me over $50,000. What has the world
come to?
