I didn't know this thread was here. My first great portable was a '72 TransOceanic 7000. I bought another one on Ebay for peanuts, repaired it, and it resides in the dungeon. The performance isn't what I expected or it needs properly realigned. Otherwise, it has great tone quality and batteries seemingly last forever. Sometimes I can receive SSB with the BFO.
