I'm still working on a 10s464 zenith with plenty of that crappy wire....not fun, but do-able.  I've read that the 40-195 is a good performer....but I'm really not sold on the style. Yet. 

Interesting info about Simplex Radio Co.  Do Simplex radios still show up?   I wouldn't mind having a decent example, sometime.

And as odd as it sounds, Upper Sandusky (where I have lived my whole life) is actually over an hour southwest of Sandusky....' Upper' (as it's known) originated as an Indian village located on the upper end of the Sandusky river.  I think the city of Sandusky was originally known as 'Lower Sandusky' on some old maps of the area, before statehood..being located at the mouth of the Sandusky river, on Lake Erie.  It is confusing.... many people get it mixed up.
