I like the brands you mentioned, including Motorola. They built some great sets. I don't live in KY, I'm in WA state, but have family heritage in KY, Owensboro area, and I have a lot of cousins in that area.
I also agree with others' posts that this is an elite group. I'm not really a part of the elite, more of an admirer. I have done work in vintage and modern electronics, but not recently.
Welcome!!
