>From private email Ive received from this character he has opted out of the
basis of this forum which is hams helping hams and he is only interested in
retail sales at maximum profit.
Can you imagine anyone paying 1/2 current retail for a 4-1000A of unknown
condition and expect the buyer to be the guinea pig??
Im the one who mentioned the Collins BCB rig that a few hams have converted
to 160 and 75 and was simply going to pass along the info about the 5-500A's
which are pulls and likley garbage anyway. They are a throwaway $10 gamble
tube with nothing to back them up. Now I wont even bother as 4-400A's work
well for owners that own those rigs.
