I used to have quite a few, but thanks to back problems I got rid of most of them, except for a few jewels like my Hallicrafters SX-28

Yes, I own several Heathkit SB-220's, of which some people consider Boatanchors. I sure do LOVE my BOATANCHORS!!!

I recently picked up a swan wm-2000a peak reading watt meter.This by far is the best meter i own,the meter itself is
3"h x 4"w. Looks proud sitting on top of the TS-520,if you can find one i highly recommend it.
