You nailed it! Think of all the expensive hobbies like boats, cars, etc. I quit collecting when renting apartments until I bought a modest house in town with my Ex. The ex did not like the radios, TV's and most of my music which was a clue.

When I moved to a farmstead 19 years ago, a detached garage, spacious walk-up attic and dry basement was key (but I was quiet about it). My folks understood during the school years as does my wife now. I just don't broadcast when I bring a set home but I make it quite obvious when I trade, sell or recycle them.

What difference would shutting off your transmitters make?

Sorry, had to.

I just got two modulators for UHF from ebay and delivery was undetected.

Lucky guess. I'm rather surprised you got your first (?) transmitters so recently.
