You're correct Bob. It can be a very effective method of advertising and
contain useful information that the reader can relate too. It sometimes
conveys a lot more user information then a long bullet string of features
and specifications. I'm surprised more rig manufacturers aren't using
this type
Seems to me these types of advertisements were quite popular back in the
50's and 60's. I remember National, Hallicrafters, and several other

This statement doesn't make any sense to me: "He has deleted his for sale
listing where ever I leave feed-back."
Item # 170124646732 is still listed on Ebay as a completed sale plus your
feedback and his feedback.

Absolutely, Brian, but "consider the odds in this case" depends on what
you're betting on. Getting "ripped off" versus "a big let down" has
different lasting consequences.

Of course, it might be wise to get the story from the other side, before
we make final lasting conclusions. Hearing stories from other buyers,
from this seller on their experience, also would help to formulate a
conclusion for all of us. I dislike one-sided stories especially when it

I don't think any of this stuff was Irb's. This is located way down the
Jersey shore.
I'm also doing clean-out here and bringing a bunch of stuff to Sussex
Hamfest, July 8, for free disposal. What doesn't go will hit the dumpster
before I leave.
I'll be inside the building.

It's a CB amp. I quick Google search is all you need. Plus you can even
get the schematic from CB tricks. As "they" say, it's only a "one pill".

I'm back from scenic Dayton. Drove back on Monday and had to crawl the
last 20 miles on the PA turnpike (multiple accidents on both sides of the
road) to get to NJ. Saw lots of people while quickly walking the flea
market and many others stopped by my spaces to say hello. Tried and

Not really true Todd. The L'il Lulu receiver was never a club project.
The "project" I believe you're referring was done at the Morris Radio
Club and only included a transmitter and it was somewhat larger in size

Several months before Ed's passing, we sat down one Sunday afternoon at
his house and had nice discussion about the receiver/transmitter, the
mobile and AC power supplies, and some converters he had on the drawing
board. I have his typed receiver manual which never went to print. Each

and one from a flea market), a guy I believe in MI has one (picked it up
in Dayton several years ago), a WØV * has one (from ebay) (and three
transmitters), a
