I (and a friend) used to hangout at a radio shop in-between service calls, and besides check out the latest new gear in the glass counter, and used gear along one wall, we'd walk through a door on the opposite room, which had aisles and shelves of radios that were for parts, or some were ones he planned on fixing and keeping them for his collection. Needless to say, when we stepped into that room, it was like going thru a time machine, with CB's pre-1960 and up to the mid-80's. It was like a museum, and if it was still there I'd go back thru the time machine door, soak up as much history as my brain could hold, then take some photos of everything. The place is long gone, but I miss it. The owner was the kinda guy who, if he was taking in your radio for repair, he'd give out a loaner CB (with the same, or more, features).
