You can never have "too many" vintage radios!!! The only prob is having enough space to fit them!!?? I bet between all us collectors that enjoy this hobby, together-collectively, we could all fill up a abandoned Wal Mart building somewhere in the USA with all our finely restored collections!! What we all need is a Huge: "Vintage Radio Mart" (buy,sell,trade), with a service dept in back with some good test equip, and "bar- lounge area", and some good lookin "chickies" up front selling Great Vintage restored Radios!! Perhaps we could have "Caps 1/2 OFF" day for the newbies? Of course Im just being silly, must be the "solder smell" getting too me!!? But I say, if the "price is right" ...... Go for it also!! Somebodys got to save all these vintage pcs of all-tube Radio-Americana!!!?? Icon_smile (hee hee) Txrockr.
