Mostly because I've got one of the last 2-3 National radios with the plug in band coil assemblies. Those are supposed to be better radios than the Hamerlund and I don't have infinite space so I prioritized quality.

While I was on vacation I found a Craigslist posting of someone who has like 8 different examples of those R-390 military radios that everyone is Gaga over...All in various states of incompleteness for $300 a piece. If I wasn't broke right now and traveling with people who hate side trips I'd have grabbed 2 and made a good set for me.
