I know it, we belonged to the same club in Bridgewater MA when she first
started and we met at a club meeting.
The funny thing with my HT collection is, I only use the same 2 or 3 over
and over again and in my financial state, I really should sell off a few but
with the cheap Chinese ones out there these days, you can't sell the older
ham and commercial ones for what they should be worth. I'm not taking $25
for a radio I should be able to get $150 for any day of the week. So, they
sit and I bring them out once in a while when I do public service events.
The comments you get these days though when you show up at a road race or
parade with an IC-2AT, or ft-470 are rather amusing. When you get in the
same spot someone with the latest and greatest HT last year had intermod,
and those radios hear no noise at all, the jokes stop pretty fast.
