I had almost forgot about that junk radio, 257 I think.
Anyway It had been back to panther for warranty work then as I was talking to a truck behind me the thing got crappy again.
I was already in a bad mood and the radio went out the window driving down the Hiway.
I'll never forget the look on that guy behind me as he saw the radio fly out the window.
Good to see you folks again!
