I agree with Bob, the Corsair II in the configuration you (Jack, K1VT)
listed is arguably the best analog radio built for the price. Dual receive -
great for the pile-ups even today!

Good decision, Jack. Those are really fine radios.

I wish to thank my TenTec friends (on this forum and elsewhere) for
smacking my head, and convincing me that selling my Corsair II would be
a mistake. I've come to my senses and have decided not to part with my
long-time friend. We still enjoy each other, and look forward to many
more happy years together.
Thanks for all the interest.

Jack K1VT
