There must have been a die hard collector on those. I have to say, AM is
cool... I've got a few guys to give it a go on 6m and 2m SSB and its just
got such a different sound to it when your used to SSB all the time.
Speaking of which, i got interested in it enough to get on AM on HF now and
then, granted i'm using modern gear however, tisk tisk.. But i do have a
hollow state amplifier!!
