They do work for salaries, however!
You couldn't buy an Orion at any price in 1986, but the point is that we
had to work more hours to afford high-end equipment in the days of
Collins, Hallicrafters, et al.

To figure the cost today of any older rig go to:

You will be surprised at the $/bells & whistles of
the
old rigs as compared to todays rigs.
IE; my Corsair II with PS and Ext VFO and all
filters
was $1988.00 in 1986 dollars would be $3,611.04 in
todays dollars. The Corsair II was the Orion of
1986.
