In a world where only the latest equipment *must* be the best, it's nice to
see older equipment in use.

Out of my radio equipment, I have a transceiver that is used almost daily
which according to it's original sales receipt makes it 32 years old and a
receiver that still works perfectly and is very sensitive that was built in
the middle part of WW2. Real quality doesn't become obsolescent overnight.

My MX and LX aren't exactly new either.
