RCA AR88D Comms Reciever

[Yorkie]

YUM, now this I would certainly consider, especially at the start price.

I must have caught the bug.

If you look at the 'service label' you'll see the initials 'R.F'. That will no doubt be Rob Filby ' Mr Racal' himself. Nothing he doesn't know about Racals, and anything he's had his mitts on will be bang on spec. Such complex receivers that without the proper test gear and knowledge how to use it, you can't even be sure if it's working right. Be interesting to see what it goes for - apart from the 'R.F' provenance, it looks excellent cosmetically - I doubt a better one will come to light in a hurry.

Nice to see an offering like that, rather than the usual 'don't know if it's working properly' offerings.
