I've had the rig for oh, probably 15 years. Never let me down. Since the kids are teenagers and I have the time I find myself with the desire to get back on the bands. Picked up a J-pole at a hamfest recently and mounted it on a pole on the side of the house (properly spaced off the pole of course). For some reason, I can't hit ANY repeaters around here, so I don't know if it's the radio or the antenna yet. The Clegg has been shelved for at least 5 or 6 years.
First radio I ever had was called an Amcomm S 225. Weirdest radio, to get on a repeater you had to dial in the INPUT frequency of the repeater.
