Boatanchor? More like a supertanker anchor!! Have fun with your Halli!! A friend's Dad had one when I was a kid...we spent many hours cruising the SW bands with it. From what I understand, tread lightly in the RF section...a difficult part of an SX-28 to work on. I'd love to stumble across one at a garage sale for $10 or so. Hey...a guy can dream, right?
BTW...pop an ad in the classifieds on
www.qth.com. You might come up w/ the missing knobs.
