Rob,

I lived in Roselle a good part of the 70's and the locals took me along with them on a tour. Blems were even cheaper and the Hunter 2000B was a very popular amp in the area.

Myself and NCL-2000 moved around to several contest stations; all I had at home was a TH-6 at 40'. Still use the amp with the same CE-100V and modified 75A4 Ive had since 1965.

Carl

The Cetron plant used to be about 2 miles from my house, in nearby
Geneva IL.  It was torn down a few years ago.  A few years before I
moved here in 1992 they had ceased production, but local hams told me
that back in the early to mid-1980s, you could go to the plant and buy
572Bs fresh off of the assembly line.  That's the kind of thing we can
only dream about nowadays.
