I used the term “scads” because I have seen new ones posted just about every
other ay since the radio hit the market.
That would seem unusual for a very new model, at least it does to me.
When the Eagle hit the market, there was a flurry of adds from people trying to
FIND one, not get rid of one.
Let’s see, East Germany put up a wall to keep people in. Some people propose
putting up a wall here to keep people out. Hmmmm…
