This Old Radio

 

What old radio feature would be complete without honoring one of the most famous of all Collins ham radio gear.  Here we celebrate the Collins KWM line.  Back in the day, this rig was the cat's meow.  Click on some interesting links below.  One of the more interesting pieces of trivia I found on the Collins KWM line was here:

The last of the series - the KWM-380 listed for (get this) $6,600 in 1983.  Holy COW that's one expensive rig!!
