While Mark is at it, I've got a rare, unmodified SB-301 for $3000, or trade
for a mint Collins S-Line.  The SB-301 is the high-water mark of the S-Line
copies, has the patina of nicotine usage, the loving wear around the tuning
knob, and the small dents in the top consistent with the even rarer station
console (not available.)  Knowledgeable collectors tell me that this radio
was used in helicopters during Vietnam, and saved many lives. Here's your
chance to buy a piece of history before it goes to E-Bay!

Sorry guys: couln't help myself.
