    I've always had cranked up Unidens with Astatic or Road King mikes. Striker antennae kicked out long ways.
    No radios no more, the silence is silent.

    I really wish I had kept the Connex 4600 Turbo I had gotten second hand for a great price. I made a decent profit on it when I sold it, but it's that one radio I really wish I didn't sell off.

    My Cobra 29 GTL was my first radio I purchased back in 1980. Regret trading it for a Galaxy 44, but just wanted an export radio. Hence, once you “Export”, you never look back.
