Military look? (puke)
If you wanna play with military look radios, join the army.

Yes, I don't see the value in 160 meters for a low-power or portable rig ,
but maybe there are QRP possibilities on the band.  I'd like to see
60 meters.  I never hear any activity on 12 meters.  Oh, and must look
mil-spec (even if it isn't)  like the now-discontinued ICOM 7200,  with side
handles front speaker and keyboard frequency entry....
