Smoky indeed.
During latter high school years, radio club high atop College Hill,
Providence, RI, a beehive of critical comm's hacktivity. Doc's SX-62 daily
aired 8972U
ASW & 6761U SAC comms. This was still The Cold War. When not keeping vigilant
HF watch, '62 dx'ed exotic FM's, primarily WBRU. Captain Beefheart a regular
performer via miracle of vinyl acetate discs.
Depending upon alert status, '62 or Zenith 500 upon occaision locked onto 630
WPRO for comms designated 'Hot Pants 1&2', message sender, 'James Brown'.
Fire bottles performed admirably under constant duress and tight security.
Solid state? Radio Club had capability, but only as backup. Unreliable.
