You REALLY need to save up yr nickels 'n' dimes, & get yrself a Hallicrafters SX-62 or 62A. They cover BCB-AM band- thru 109 Mcs, so you can get the FM band, too. Plus ALL the shortwave bands. The case on 'em was designed by Raymond Loewy, the same guy who designed the postwar Studebakers. They have EXCELLENT sound, enuff knobs to keep you busy twiddlin' them (Altho you don't have to), & there's no "Unobtainium" tubes in 'em. A decent one will set you back about $350-400 on You-Know-Where. I REALLY, REALLY like mine-they're big, pretty, VERY substantial looking, have an "old, yet modern" look about them. You boys thought I was gonna try to sell him on an R-390A, didn't ya? Well, Bunky, that can be yr NEXT one...After the SX-62....<grin>
