my father has a dozen HAM radios and has dutifully tried to get one of his 4 kids involved (he says he doesnt want them put on craigslist when he passes). He showed me today a hammonds/hammons (sp?) that sold in the early 1940's for 35,000 bucks!! Sadly, it's roughly worth about 700 bucks now, but I keep telling myself to get into it at least for the survivalist part of me. I have many fond memories when I was a boy going to sleep and hearing my dad saying WCQR or something (whats the call for seeking overseas?, he loved those) and his call sign while falling sleep in the adjecent room. If even just for him, I need to get interested.
