That thing is great! I need to find myself one of those now. I have always been a fan of Motorola products. I think Moto was one of the first to sell itself out and go with japanese and european parts. Some of their radios as old as 1961 have nichicon or elna capacitors. Yours looks like one of them. Looks like it has japanese IF cans also. Then you started to see the japanese made speakers and it just started to get worse each year with moto. Lots of domestic made parts of course, but they certainly had their fair share of foreign parts compared to the rest of the industry.

As for the EBS, I've had that memorized since I was a kid, but not on purpose. Its from hearing it all those years as a kid, exactly as you worded it. Its like the pledge of allegiance, you never forget how it goes.
