Well, you could crystal them up for a net frequency, but amateur nets 
seldom stay exactly on the published frequency. The NTS nets often have 
to QSY to dodge QRM. You could crystal them up for the 60 meter 
channels. It may be possible to connect an outboard VFO to them. Or, 
just pick a frequency, sell/give one to a local friend and have a Ten 
Tec intercom.

If I saw one in good shape at a good price I'd get it just to tinker 
with it, but not for $200 and not in that condition!
