Yours' is an interesting comment, George. For some reason, I notice that my Argonaut II keeps displacing the larger radios, like my Corsair II and the Omni V, off the operating desk. I know the big ones have much better receivers, more transmitting power, and more features than the smaller radio, but it is just more fun to use.

When I visited the factory in November, I got a chance to try out an Eagle there in the shack, and it is the radio that my Argonaut would like to be. I hope to get an Eagle soon.

You are welcome,Rip.  The Eagle is small, but the Knobs and display, even for my
old eyes, are OK.  Last night on 75 checking into some nets I used the OMNIVll
and the Eagle.  I am and old engineer and entrepreneur and I hate to use terms
like this, but the Eagle has "charm" the OMNI is just another radio!!
