Hi Jim, Many thanks! Maybe I'll ask a few of the locals when I'm down there, too...
I recall reading in ER a LONG time ago about somebody who found a surplus place somewhere in Mexica---had a bunch of old military gear & R390A's, but I can't recall the prices... Can you imagine trying to load one of them babies onboard a plane bound for home as a piece of carry-on luggage...?! ~73~ Eddy VE3CUI - VE3XZ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Wilhite" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "Discussion of AM Radio" <amradio@mailman.qth.net> Sent: Sunday, May 01, 2005 3:18 PM Subject: [AMRadio] Re: [Boatanchors] Surplus in Mexico... > Hi Ed: > > It has been a while since I was there, but in my extensive travels in > Northern Mexico, I never saw one.
